Sevastopol/Home

OperaShots returns to ROH2 and the Linbury Theatre for more innovative views from leading contemporary talent. This year it is the turn of minimalist composer Graham Fitkin, collaborating with choreographer Jasmin Vardimon in the dance/opera piece 'Home'. (Music from the Graham Fitkin Band under the composer.) Then, Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy explores opera from unexpected angles with his Tolstoy-inspired work 'Sevastopol', set in the Crimea. (Starring Richard Burkhard as Tolstoy; music from an ensemble under Gerry Cornelius.)
