Semele

SemeleT465788015
Irreverent slice of classical mythology - sensual and satirical, hilarious and heart-warming. The god Jupiter is captivated by Semele's intoxicating beauty in a dramatic love story of the divine and the mortal. It cannot last, and Semele suffers the consequences.
Music Handel
Lyrics Congreve
Book by Ovid
