The Royal Opera House have announced their plans to reopen on17 May, in line with the Government’s roadmap to ease lockdown restrictions, as well as their new season. 

The new season, a combination of live and streamed performances, will feature dance work by Christopher Wheeldon and Crystal Pite and a wealth of opera, including a new production of Mozart’s La Clemenza di Tito, directed by Richard Jones and conducted by Mark Wigglesworth. 

The line-up will also include Current, Rising, an event described as the “world’s first hyper reality opera”, designed by the venue’s innovation programme alongside Figment Productions and Royal Holloway University.

The venue will live stream their first fully staged production since the start of the pandemic with a double bill of Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill’s The Seven Deadly Sins and Mahagonny Songspiel on 9 April.

Further dates and details for in-person performances will be announced next month, encompassing the Main Stage and the Linbury Theatre.
