Orpheus & Eurydice

Opera by Christoph Willibald Gluck

Lyster Opera proudly celebrates its tenth anniversary with a superb new production of Gluck’s timeless masterpiece Orphée et Eurydice — marking our return to St Martins, South Yarra.

This elegant and emotionally charged opera tells the enduring fable of Orpheus, who descends into the underworld to reclaim his beloved Eurydice. Along the way, he confronts the terrifying Furies of Hell and the radiant Blessed Spirits of Elysium, in one of opera’s most moving journeys from darkness to light.

Featuring a dazzling cast and Gluck’s classic, stirring score, this production promises to be both visually and musically captivating.

This performance is sung in French with English subtitles.
