Work has now entered its final stages in preparation for the production of Gaetano Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor being staged at the Manoel Theatre tomorrow and on Sunday. This year’s opera is produced by the Silesian National Opera, one of the leading Czech houses. This particular production won the prestigious Thalia Prize in 2005, under the musical direction of Damiano Binetti and artistic director Jana Andelova Pletichova who will respectively conduct and direct the performances at the Manoel.
Students and senior citizens are being invited to attend the dress rehearsal of the opera today at 7.30 p.m. Seating is on a first-come-first-served basis.
