Abomination: A DUP Opera - cast on stage around a leather sofa
Fusing opera with drag, cabaret and political satire, acclaimed composer Conor Mitchell and the Belfast Ensemble present their award-winning verbatim opera.


Close
Revolutionary in form, Abomination centres on the scandalous live radio interview given by Northern Irish politician Iris Robinson, when she referred to homosexuality as an ‘abomination’.

The interview, now part of Irish queer history, instantly reignited the equality debate in this area of the UK.

With its high-impact, multi-disciplinary style, the Belfast Ensemble wraps this story in a fresh web of incendiary historical comments by DUP members on the subject of gay rights and marriage equality to shockingly theatrical effect – challenging the power of words in the hands of the powerful.

Contemporary, political, comic and emotionally complex, this riotous Northern Irish original redefines what a 21st-century opera could say, and why… and with just a touch of drag!

Cast includes the international soprano Rebecca Caine, and orchestral forces of the Belfast Ensemble.

Originally produced by The Belfast Ensemble and Outburst Arts for Outburst Queer Arts Festival 2019, with support from The Arts Council of Northern Ireland, Paul Hamlyn Foundation and British Council.

Supported by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Belfast City Council.
