Gothic Opera: Rip van Winkle
- 7:30 pm
- Hoxton Hall, 130 Hoxton Street, London
This Halloween, join us for a now-forgotten operetta - coming back to London over 140 years after its premiere. Rip Van Winkle is a forgotten English-language operetta by Robert Planquette based on two stories by Washington Irving - Rip van Winkle and the famous Sleepy Hollow. The piece premiered in London in 1882, running for almost 300 performances, but the English version hasn’t been performed since. With a cast of exceptional singers, Gothic Opera will be approaching this charming piece with fresh eyes, and reinvigorating it with a new chamber arrangement and newly-written dialogue.
