Boulevard Solitude | Welsh National Opera

'Boulevard Solitude is better than perfect' - ***** The Times
'A deserved triumph for WNO' - ***** The Financial Times

Manon and Armand are in love. But can their love survive when a world of sex, drugs and crime intrudes on their happiness?

Henze's powerful, intoxicating opera is a compelling vision of post-war Europe. Combining jazz, 19th century opera and 20th century styles - this is opera but not as you know it.

Award winning Theatre, Opera and Film Director Mariusz Trelinski sets his production against a gritty, cinematic backdrop of an underground station where temptation and lust lurk around every corner.

Boulevard Solitude is performed by a world-class cast alongside the WNO Chorus and Orchestra. Join us for an evening at the theatre which promises to overwhelm the senses.
