An OperaUpClose co-production with Mayflower Southampton
Gianni Schicchi
5 – 7 March 2026
Event details
OperaUpClose returns with a brilliantly subversive and satirical take on Puccini’s enduringly popular family farce. A modern twist on a classic set to delight both opera lovers and curious newcomers alike.
Directed by award winning PJ Harris, rising stars Dan D’Souza and Ceferina Penny lead a stellar cast of opera singers and players in a new English version by Hannah Kumari, re-orchestrated by Vahan Salorian.
Puccini’s comic masterpiece comes roaring into the 21st century, in a modern day ‘whodunnit’ challenging a world where everyone is out for themselves.
