The Cunning Little VixenNueva producción

Immerse yourself in the Britten Theatre for Janáček’s opera The Cunning Little Vixen. Playful parallels are drawn between animal and human life, hinting at shared characteristics while revelling in the variety of nature. 

Through a tender series of snapshots of everyday life, we witness love, longing and loss in both humans and animals, made all the more profound through Janáček’s lush orchestral writing intermixed with folk tunes. This production embraces the episodic and at times whimsical nature of the opera, creating an off-beat world that has its own authenticity. Inspired by Vixen’s untameable wildness, it leans into the fact that the opera as a whole insists upon the power of nature and the cycle of life.
