Performer: Joan O'Clery

A tiny stage and five musicians prove no obstacle to Irish National Opera’s lively, witty Bartered Bride, where sharp casting and clever direction turn modest means into genuine delight.

Byrne is stunning in the title role while a strong cast of singers, orchestra, classic sets and dramatic acting make this a thoroughly enjoyable performance. 

Enda Walsh und Donnacha Dennehy ziehen die Zuschauer des Opera Forward Festivals mit ihrer Oper in ihren Bann.
