I was totally absorbed by its headlong rush into tragedy and the singing and music was of astonishing quality. Overall a music triumph, but with a confusing narrative, but a rich lush evening none the less.

‘La Traviata’, one of Verdi’s most popular operas, comes to Eastbourne’s Congress Theatre in February with a spectacular traditional production boasting a stellar international cast.
The opera is Verdi’s interpretation of one of the most popular love stories of the 19th century, La Dame aux Camelias. Based on a true story, it tells of the passionate loves and life of the consumptive courtesan, Violetta Valery.
