Royal Danish Opera

A festive and delightful opera in a critically acclaimed and vividly staged production from Glyndebourne Festival Opera.

The old should not meddle in the affairs of the young—this is the moral of Don Pasquale, Donizetti’s witty and exuberant comedy, which satirises arranged marriages and celebrates youthful, genuine love.

Don Pasquale

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.

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.

L’incoronazione di Poppea

Josephine Park stars as Yerma in a gripping drama about a modern woman’s all-consuming desire for a child—and the lengths she will go to in pursuit of her dream.

What do you do when you have every opportunity in life, yet your greatest wish remains unfulfilled?

Yerma is a successful city woman in full control of her life. She has never considered having children—until the day she moves into her new townhouse. Suddenly, the desire arises: there is plenty of space, after all. She persuades her partner, and together they try for years to conceive.

As their efforts prove unsuccessful, she restructures their work and private lives around her ovulation cycles. She shares intimate details of their struggle with infertility and family pressures on social media, while her partner gradually loses interest in fertility treatments—and in their relationship. Once, she had never defined her body by its biological function. Now, the deep longing for motherhood consumes her entirely, turning into an obsession.

Yerma

Den grimme ælling - en PixiOpera

Robert Carsen’s acclaimed and timely staging of Mozart’s Idomeneo returns to the Opera House.

Idomeneo was Mozart’s first great opera, composed in 1781 by a 25-year-old genius as a festive commission for the Elector’s new theatre in Munich. Mozart’s creativity knew no bounds, and this extraordinary score places immense demands on both soloists and the grand opera chorus.

Moesgaard transforms into a frozen landscape as Hans Christian Andersen’s beloved fairytale returns in a spectacular family production.

A magic mirror, crafted by the Devil, distorts everything beautiful, making it appear ugly and ridiculous. When the mirror shatters, its splinters rain down upon the world, where childhood friends Kay and Gerda share a deep and loving bond. But when a tiny shard lodges itself in Kay’s eye, his joy and warmth turn to scorn and cold-hearted cynicism. His newfound arrogance catches the attention of the Snow Queen herself, who lures him away with icy kisses and an irresistible embrace. Suddenly, Kay vanishes—without a trace.

Thirteen actors are on stage in this critically acclaimed drama staged as a full-day performance.
 

New drama. New generations.

In Manhattan, a generation after the height of the AIDS epidemic, Eric, a sensitive soul, and a talented yet self-destructive writer, Toby, share a turbulent love affair that tears everyone around them apart. While the United States, where Trump wins the presidency, is becoming more and more polarised, the world around them seems to be collapsing.

Their lives are linked to several other fates, which has dire consequences for them all. Some are haunted by the past, while others are hungry for a future.

The Inheritance is the story of three generations of gay men searching for the legacy that binds us together as human beings and lovers. It is a tale of the generation that followed those affected by the AIDS epidemic.
