Title: Win tickets to see 'Orpheus in the Underworld' - Sydney Post by: culturebird on Thursday 07 March 2013, 11:17:31 am Thanks to our friends at Opera Australia, we are thrilled to be giving away two PREMIUM TICKETS (total value $350) to Opera Australia’s Orpheus in the Underworld to one lucky AussieTheatre reader.
Todd McKenney in Orpheus in the Underworld. Photo by Lisa Tomasetti Offenbach’s Orpheus in the Underworld was first performed in 1858, but this hilari re-imagining by Jonathan Biggins and Phil Scott, starring Todd McKenney, Mitchell Butel and Rachelle Durkin has been updated for a modern audience. “The main reason that this production works is because it is genuinely hilarious. It’s rare for comedy in opera or operetta to be quite so outrageous.” — Ben Neutze's review on AussieTheatre. The winner (and guest) of this incredible prize will attend the opera on Friday 22 March at the renowned Sydney Opera House. Date: Friday March 22 at 7:30pm Venue: Joan Sutherland Theatre, Sydney Opera House http://aussietheatre.com.au/giveaways/orpheus-in-the-underworld-giveaway-sydney/?utm_source=Aussie+Theatre&utm_campaign=e33ecae4c4-Weekly_Update_7_3_2013&utm_medium=email Competition closes Friday 15 March at 6:30pm AEDT and winners will be contacted via email/phone. |
