A Hand of Bridge
by Samuel Barber
A New production of Barber's classic 12 minute opera. Barber's wittily compressed masterpiece unflinchingly dissects sexual repression and desire, in a game of cards which reveals people's darkest and innermost thoughts.

Fade (World Premiere)
by Stefan Weisman
Second Movement has commissioned its first new opera from the talented young composer, Stefean Weisman.

Albert and Getrude arrive at their new eco home filled with hope for the future. But, as the light fails, the house begins to feel more and more isolated. Why are the phones not working? And what exactly is happening 'over there'? Stefan Weisman's gripping brand-new opera conjures an atmosphere of increasing menace in a short, sharp tale of a new home and broken lives. World premiere.

Trouble in Tahiti
by Leonard Bernstein
A revival of one of our most successful shows! Written by one of the all-time great masters of American music, Trouble in Tahiti is both a searing indictment of apple-pie suburbia and a haunting exploration of marital breakdown. With the jazzy inflections and raw emotionalism of his best work, Bernstein painfully dissects the American Dream - and what happens when it turns into nightmare.
