The Arcola Theatre's alt-opera festival Grimeborn returns for its seventeeth year in 2024 and it’s as eclectic as ever, from a gory feminist reworking of Heinrich August Marschner’s nineteenth century opera ‘Der Vampyr’ (Aug 14-17) and the return of Logan Lopez Gonzalez and Eleanor Burke’s Paul Verlaine opera ‘555: Verlaine en Prison’ (Sep 4-7) to ‘Mr Punch at the Opera’ (Aug 21-24) a family-friendly remix of Pergolisa’s ‘La Serva Padrona’.
See theatre website for schedule.
