Lucia di Lammermoor  LIVE OPERA: Monday April 25 at 7:15pm  Lucia di Lammermoor tells the story of an ongoing feud between two families in 17th-century Scotland that has terrible consequences for two young lovers. It contains what is undoubtedly one of opera’s most poignant and gripping mad scenes, and is regarded as one of Donizetti’s finest works. The opera has not been seen at the Royal Opera House in more than a decade, so this new production by Katie Mitchell will be a particularly important and exciting event. Conducted by Daniel Oren and starring Diana Damrau and Charles Castronovo.

Measure for Measure  Monday May 9 at 7:45pm   After a history of quirky adaptations, this lesser known work is now restored to its classic glory.
