OPERA HOLLAND PARK: L'AMICO FRITZ

Opera Holland Park: L’amico Fritz

For many years, Opera Holland Park has been making the amazing world of opera accessible to all with thousands of free and affordable tickets being made available across the community. They hold schools’ matinees too, when 1,000 school children attend. Opera is spectacular and gripping and OHP is the perfect place to explore this art form. 

Nova is thrilled to say that we have secured a number of tickets to three of the amazing productions taking place in Holland Park this summer. The theatre is equipped with a huge roof and this year, the theatre will be specially designed for Covid safety. Opera Holland Park is very informal and these events are designated Relaxed Performances, along with audio description facilities. There is no dressing up if you don’t want to either! Just enjoy the music and spectacle of the operas. 

L’amico Fritz (Mascagni) 

Sung in Italian with English surtitles

Fritz thinks his life‘s a bowl of cherries. Could it be even better if he shared it with someone? Maybe things are just a little too comfortable for Fritz. Plenty of money. Teams of people working for him. Even a violinist whose tunes always cheer him up. He is convinced that marriage is not for him. Suzel would like to change his mind, but Fritz won‘t get the hint. Could it be time for the local rabbi to step in and help things along? L‘amico Fritz is a feel–good romantic comedy set amidst cherry orchards and vineyards by the composer of Cavalleria rusticana, showing us his gentler side and reminding us what friends are for.
