Orpheus and Eurydice

Christopher Gluck's stately 18th century opera opens the ENO's season of takes on the Orpheus myth. 'Orpheus and Eurydice' will mix distinguished musical stylings with unbuttoned dance scenes, choreographed by contemporary ballet master Wayne McGregor. Alice Coote will take the role of Orpheus (which was originally written for a castrato) opposite Sarah Tynan as Eurydice.
