"It's got a haunted mansion, it's got ghosts, it's got murder, it's got love..." Gothic Opera presents Maria de Rudenz by Donizetti. Staged UK premiere with organ and chamber orchestra - coming to BatterseaArtsCentre this #Halloween. 31 Oct - 2 Nov. TICKETS: bac.org.uk/whats-on/maria…

Our spooky friends Gothic Opera present the UK premiere of Maria de Rudenz by Donizetti at the atmospheric BatterseaArtsCentre . The opera is fully staged, with a cast of exciting singers and arranged for chamber orchestra.

Tonight I'm off to BatterseaArtsCentre to see a genuine rarity: Maria de Rudenz by Donizetti. It's another rediscovery by Gothic Opera (they're good at those) and I'll be reviewing it for Opera with Opera News

Interval time at BatterseaArtsCentre and I'm having so much fun. Hats off to Gothic Opera for what they've achieved with Maria de Rudenz. Beautifully staged, a great little band and magical lighting. I can't speak for the alternate cast but this one rocks!

Thank you Gothic Opera for another brilliant night. It's become a highlight of my year. (And only in part because I get to dress up). Also, opera adaptation of Charlotte Dacre's 'Zofloya'? It needs to happen next.


Terrific Maria de Rudenz from Gothic Opera at BatterseaArtsCentre. Outstanding bel canto singing from Daniella Sicari in the title role. Atmospheric production led by Luca Panetta’s lighting. A very nice amuse-bouche before Fondazione Donizetti later this month… Photo: Craig Fuller


Mark Pullinger Gothic Opera BatterseaArtsCentre Fondazione Donizetti So pleased we agree on this, Mark. The opera was revelation to me. The other cast was tremendous with three outstanding leads. And you're quite right about Luca Panetta's lighting: it transformed the dilapidated stonework into a luxurious stage set.

#OPERA #REVIEW Maria de Rudenz BatterseaArtsCentre Gothic Opera 'a fantastic production which deserves to be more widely seen' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ thereviewshub.com/maria-de-ruden… #London




Three reviews by me in the new January (!) issue of Opera with Opera News: La traviata at Glyndebourne, Fidelio at the Royal Ballet and Opera and - my surprised-by-joy find of the month - Maria de Rudenz (Donizetti) from Gothic Opera.


Welsh National Opera @NoFitState PICK OF THE YEAR (CHAMBER) It was the year Gothic Opera came of age wit not one but two crackers. After DER VAMPYR, hilarious and blood-soaked, they upped sticks to BatterseaArtsCentre with Donizetti’s MARIA DE RUDENZ. Superbly lit by Luca Panetta, it oozed atmosphere and class. 4/6
