La Traviata

La Traviata

Synopsis

'La Traviata' is one of the best known operas in the repertoire, with a strong narrative thread at its heart. OperaGlass Works bring something fresh to it, to appeal to lovers of the work and to audiences who have never seen opera before. This is not live capture of a stage performance, it is a movie, filmed on location with a diverse cast of singers and a troupe of magnificent dancers. An ensemble full of character and wit create something that is traditional, truthful and quite different.
La Traviata is a tragic tale about Parisian courtesan, Violetta, who meets the romantic aristocrat Alfredo. Finding herself in love for the first time, she abandons her frivolous lifestyle to be with him. Happiness is short-lived: the hypocrisy of upper-class society threatens their love – and she pays the ultimate price.
