Described as “visually and vocally spectacular” and “one of the most impressive South African operas”, this opera featured some of the finest young theatre and music talent in the country. In a uniquely South African plot, the opera buffa genre is adapted to tell the story of a young woman widow with a lascivious reputation in a conservative rural town.
