The vespa-driving, party-hopping counterculture of the 60s is back to seduce the Lowry audience with a soundtrack from The Who made to lift any apathetic spirit.

The legendary Flying Dutchman drops anchor at the Lowry theatre, offering a haunting reimagining of Richard Wagner’s 1843 opera.

Opera North is turning the tables on the Lowry audience with an outwitting opera filled with frivolity, passion and cheek. Based on the Shakespeare comedy The Merry Wives of Windsor’s larger-than-life character Falstaff, this charming production infuses the timeless tale of misadventures into Opera North’s Green Season, which packages the production as sustainably as possible.

Burning its own path in ballet, the Rambert experience is not one to be missed. With a knockout soundtrack and a reputation to uphold, the story of Thomas Shelby is accentuated with stunningly subtle visuals and extraordinary performances.
