L'elisir d'amore

Information for L'elisir d'amore at The King's Head Theatre, Inner London (Opera or Operetta). Set amongst the olive groves of southern Italy, this witty and moving opera tells the story of a love rivalry between Nemorino, a pauper with a passionate heart, and Sergeant Belcore, who is a charming womaniser with a fantastically inflated ego. They vie for the heart of the beautiful, self-assured Adina, who is looking for a grand passion, reflected in her fascination with the story of Tristan and Isolde. Adina is the hottest property in Hollywood - and Nemorino adores her. When a self-confident army officer embarks on a very public flirtation with Adina, Nemorino is in despair, until a smooth-talking movie producer comes to his rescue with a ?love potion' which he promises will win Adina once and for all. Director Valentina Ceschi sets The Elixir of Love at a glamourous 1950s garden party at the height of Hollywood's Golden Age, with a new English libretto by Verity Bargate Award-winner Thomas Eccleshare.
