Turandot synopsis:
Meet a brutal princess and an impossibly brave suitor, who will make any sacrifice to win her love. This classic production of Puccini’s famous final opera features beautiful choreography and the most famous aria of all time – ‘Nessun dorma’. Princess Turandot has sworn that no man shall marry her unless he can answer three riddles. If he fails, he will die. Captivated by Turandot’s beauty, Prince Calaf takes up the challenge, determined to win her heart or die in the attempt. Turandot is a fantasy opera of poetry and myth, set in an exotic world where fear and love go hand in hand and death is always just around the corner.
