Details

Set in Paris in 1905, The Merry Widow is a tonic to lift the spirits in midwinter – a glorious evening of romantic love rediscovered in the midst of pomposity, avarice and mistaken identity, and bound together by sumptuously beautiful music and enthusiastic dancing. Baron Zeta, the Pontevedrian Ambassador in Paris, is determined to ensure that the millions inherited by Anna Glavary, a wealthy young widow, remain in Pontevedro if she marries again. She must be persuaded to marry a suitable Pontevedrian – not a Frenchman. But the suitor he alights on, Count Danilovitsch, is a notorious lover of wine and women, who turns out to know Anna already.

With Kezia Robson as Anna Glavary and Charlie Morris as Count Danilo this is a fully-staged production with supporting cast, chorus and orchestra of Bath Opera.
