Papageno and Papagena

An award-winning musical about Evan Hansen, who wants nothing more than to fit In, but his social life is built on a lie—So who is he really?

High school student Evan Hansen struggles with loneliness and social anxiety. When a classmate dies by suicide, a misunderstanding turns Evan’s private letter to himself into what appears to be the classmate’s farewell note addressed to him. Suddenly, everyone believes they were best friends. As Evan fails to correct the mistake, he becomes increasingly entangled in the deception. His popularity soars, and he finds a sense of belonging within the grieving family, who take comfort in his presence. But as the lie spirals out of control, Evan must face the inevitable truth—about himself and those around him.


Dear Evan Hansen

Verdi’s celebrated dramatic masterpiece is a triumph of opera, brimming with some of its greatest musical highlights.

Rigoletto has everything one could wish for in Italian opera: a gripping storyline and unforgettable melodies that stay with you long after the curtain falls—including the famous tenor aria La donna è mobile.

Rigoletto

A harrowing and powerful opera inspired by true events of the French Revolution.

The contrast between the quiet life of a convent and the sweeping, destructive forces of revolution lies at the heart of Poulenc’s opera, which is inspired by real events from the French Revolution.

Dialogues des Carmélites

Experience Iben Hjejle and Alexander Bryld Obaze in the theatrical adaptation of Katrine Marie Guldager’s sharp-witted and critically acclaimed novel.

Lotte has been abandoned by the love of her life, Michael, and, to make matters worse, has also been dismissed from her job as a social worker. Then, out of the blue, Michael’s grown-up son, Daniel, calls—he has been unable to reach his father. Together, they discover Michael dead in his flat.

As Lotte and Daniel attempt to unravel the mystery of Michael’s sudden death, she is unwillingly drawn into her neighbour’s turbulent marital crisis, disrupted by her job consultant’s relentless demands for CV-writing courses, and confronted by former colleagues who—full of sympathy—lament her unfair dismissal. On top of it all, she finds herself looking after her neighbour’s children while the neighbour resolves her marriage troubles in Lotte’s own bed.

Experience Nicolas Bro as Uncle Vanya in Chekhov’s classic, reimagined in contemporary rural Denmark—where change is hard to accept.

'Life in the countryside is wonderful,' or so they say—but not for Sonja and her Uncle Vanya. For 25 years, they have worked tirelessly to keep the family farm afloat, in part to support Sonja’s father, a professor living in the city. Now, having retired and fallen on hard times, he has moved to the farm with his much younger wife, Jelena—whose beauty proves a dangerous distraction for both Vanya and the doctor, Astrov.

Uncle Vanya

Artistic Director Elisabeth Linton and Principal Conductor Marie Jacquot lead a new production of Richard Strauss’s lavish opera.

In Der Rosenkavalier, satire, comedy, melancholy, and romance merge with dazzling music. The Royal Danish Opera’s Artistic Director, Elisabeth Linton, stages the production, with Principal Conductor Marie Jacquot leading the orchestra.

Der Rosenkavalier

Karl-Aage’s life begins and ends with Regitze. Who is he without her? Experience Olaf Johannessen and Maria Rossing in an intimate production about love and grief.

'It would be a beautiful evening. One of those rare, still, warm summer nights, where everything seems to pause and hold its breath for a moment. Regitze could not have chosen a better evening for her party.'

Karl-Aage has been married to Regitze for over 40 years. Now, as she faces an incurable illness, they prepare for what will be their final gathering at their allotment garden. As he reflects on a lifetime with the fearless, strong-willed, and life-affirming Regitze, his own story unfolds—one in which he has always been the passive, hesitant, and reserved one.

Memories of a Marriage

Theatre icon Christoph Marthaler presents one of the world’s earliest operas as a ruthless, strikingly relevant tale of power and intrigue.

L’incoronazione di Poppea recounts a bloody chapter of Roman history, teeming with corruption and immorality.
