GARSINGTON IN THE COMMUNITY

Performance 29 July

No trespassing! The tale of one giant, his garden and an equal share of paradise.

In 2021 our Youth Company takes to the stage once more, with a world premiere of The Selfish Giant, a new co-commission with Opera North by John Barber & Jessica Duchen based on Oscar Wilde s short story.

Directed by Karen Gillingham, this new production will feature young professional singers performing alongside 90 members of our Youth Company aged 7-21. This is a perfect opportunity for Garsington Opera Members to bring their families for an appealing introduction to opera, performed by young people. Booking details will be announced in 2021.
