Allegra is a brand-new comedy by the celebrated, Tony and Olivier Award-nominated playwright Peter Quilter (End of the Rainbow). Ahead of the 2026 tour and planned West End run, Maureen Lipman (See How They Run, Coronation Street) has been announced for the world premiere. Her first major UK tour in two decades, Lipman is one of Britain's most beloved stage and screen actors, and Allegra marks a new collaboration with Quilter following their West End success with Rose.

Allegra

Theatre Royal Brighton

In Richard Strauss’ opera Capriccio, characters debate whether art, poetry or music is more important; this exquisite Sextet makes a persuasive argument for the latter.

Cocktail Hour with Euan Harvey

Sydney Opera House

Schoenberg’s Transfigured Night is an intoxicating work. Influenced hugely by Brahms and Wagner in both the richness of the writing and the high drama of the narrative it depicts, it is one of the great works of late Romantic chamber music.

Schoenberg & Williams

He was fascinated by the music of America, particularly Native American and African-American music, and was energised by influences outside European traditions. This quintet is full of joy, as fresh and invigorating as a brisk walk through Central Park in autumn.

Dvořák's String Quintet No.3

The work was inspired by Janáček’s love for Kamila Stösslová, a young married woman. The music twists and turns with the changing fortunes of their relationship revealed through their 700 letters.

Grammy Award-winning American composer Joan Tower’s Rising is a work of perpetual upward movement. A dazzling, continuous expansion gathering intensity throughout, the piece is a dynamic prelude to Janáček’s Quartet.

Janáček’s String Quartet No.2

With a thunderous entrance from the orchestra and piano chords that crash like waves, Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto announces itself with total confidence.
