Handel’s Messiah

If your Christmas plans aren’t complete until you’ve got a performance of Handel’s Messiah in the diary then look no further than critically-acclaimed opera company Wild Arts (★★★★★ Opera Now, ★★★★ The Guardian) for this year’s festive fix.

Following on from their summer opera performances in Malvern, Wild Arts returns this December with its innovative dramatisation of Handel’s legendary telling of the Christmas story.

Performing the entire piece from memory, the singers bring music and story to life, with staging devised by theatre and opera director Tom Morris (Breaking the Waves, Dr Semmelweis, War Horse). The musicians of the Wild Arts Ensemble, playing period instruments, are directed by Wild Arts’ Artistic Director Orlando Jopling in this enthralling and moving production that has received standing ovations across the country.
