The Tales of Hoffmann

A fantastical journey through memory and love.

Through the haze of the years, a poet remembers the women he loved. But when it comes to matters of the heart, nothing is as it seems. Particularly when the devil himself is involved…

Juan Diego Flórez, Leonardo Caimi and Ermonela Jaho lead a fantastic cast in this dreamlike opera. The production premiered at Opera Australia where it was described as "an instant winner" (Bachtrack) and "Outstanding" (ArtsHub) in five-star reviews.
