Russian State Opera: Aida

The Russian State Opera returns with Aida, the timeless and emotional opera with breath-taking melodies, featuring an impressive cast and accompanied by a live Orchestra.

A gripping love story that will keep you on the edge of your seats until the very end, this brand-new production guarantees to delight you with sumptuous sets and splendid new costumes.

Verdi brings ancient Egypt on stage with an evolving love story at the backdrop of war. The princess of Ethiopia (Aida) falls in love with the Egyptian General (Radames) and he is also besotted by her. Radames is chosen to lead the war with Ethiopia by the king and Aida is left to choose between her lover or her father and her country.

A deeply moving opera overflowing with emotion and containing moments of despair and uncertainty, Aida is an unforgettable and inspiring experience.
