Witness a romantic masterpiece re-envisioned!West Australian Opera presents Iolanta.6 - 9 April 2022 His Majesty's Theatre, Perthhttps://bit.ly/WAOIolanta

Tchaikovsky’s last opera tells the tale of a beautiful woman who falls in love. At least, that’s all it should be about.

Instead, we witness the story of a woman who is held captive, not by her blindness, but by the ignorance and assumptions of those around her.

In a world premiere production, WAO has worked with the blind and vision impaired community of Perth to update the libretto and develop a production that tells the story from Iolanta’s view.

True to the sumptuous beauty of Tchaikovsky’s music, this season will have more than soaring voices and sweeping melodies. The production will take the audience on a journey to discover the lived experience of the blind and vision impaired, to see the world the way they see it, in a truly immersive event experience.

Iolanta by Tchaikovsky, P. I., Wed 06 Apr 2022, From (2022/2022), Directed by Katt Osborne,, Conductor Christopher van Tuinen, His Majesty's Theatre, Perth, Australia
