Prepare yourself for a whimsical adventure with Offenbach's "Les Contes D'Hoffmann," his final opera that's a wild mix of romance and, well, a serious case of love gone wrong. Our star, French tenor Benjamin Bernheim, takes on the role of Hoffmann, the hapless poet who just can't get his heart sorted. He has a star-studded cast with him—American soprano Erin Morley morphs into the fascinating yet flawed Olympia, Pretty Yende from South Africa dives deep into the drama as Antonia, and the fabulous Clémentine Margaine from France heats things up as the enigmatic Giulietta. Imagine a love triangle tangled up in a magical whirlwind—add in some fantastic music, and you've got a recipe for a rollicking time, especially when you consider the infamous Doll Song that even seasoned singers dread tackling.

If you're keen for a blend of soaring melodies and emotional ups and downs, swing by the Ian Macintosh Theatre in Bathurst. Grab a bunch of mates for a group discount because experiencing a poet's heartache is definitely more fun with friends. Mark your calendars for Sunday, 17 November 2024, at 1:00 PM, and get ready to indulge in an afternoon of lyrical delight and operatic antics.
