Artiste: Michael Rafferty

The Devil Inside, a chilling new opera by Stuart Macrae with libretto by Louise Welsh, is a fairy tale for grown-ups. Who will be the last owner of the devilish bottle and the curse of eternal damnation?

Philip Glass finds a new simplicity in an impressive première production of The Trial from Music Theatre Wales. 

Music Theatre Wales’ production of Salvatore Sciarrino’s The Killing Flower begins in darkness. Michael McCarthy’s highly stylized production fits with the music, which is a fitting interpretation of extreme emotions: love that knows no control and no reason.
