Opera Australia - A Midsummer Nights Dream Tickets Melbourne![]() Britten’s music captures the spirit of Shakespeare’s mischievous tale of enchantment and love with uncanny accuracy... weaving together fascinating orchestral colours and seductive melodies in a spell-bindingly beautiful score, in this restaging of Baz Luhrmann’s legendary production. Deep in the forest the fairies are stirring. As Benjamin Britten’s enchanting music slips seductively out of the orchestra pit, discover a place where Indian gods, British colonials and rustic clowns collide, collude and sometimes fall in love. A Midsummer Night’s Dream is back. Before Romeo + Juliet, this was the production that showed the world the boundless imaginations of director Baz Luhrmann and designer Catherine Martin. Inspired by the words of Shakespeare and Britten’s magical score, they cast a spell to create one of Opera Australia’s most celebrated productions, ever. Faces old and new will show you around the enchanted forest. Young Australian conductor Alexander Briger is on the bandstand, while Tobias Cole and Rachelle Durkin play the King and Queen of the Fairies. Meanwhile Tyler Coppin and Conal Coad reprise their unforgettable performances of Puck and Bottom. You’ll love it if you like theatrical magic. Watch out for blue-skinned fairies and beguiling music.
