English National Opera, London will perform 'The Turn of the Screw'. English National Opera, London has consistently championed the work of Benjamin Britten ever since we premiered Peter Grimes at Sadler’s Wells in 1945.
Nine years later Britten turned Henry James’s Victorian ghost story, The Turn of the Screw, into a hauntingly atmospheric and ambiguously twisted tale of domestic abuse and corrupted innocence.
Originally produced by the Mariinsky Theatre in St Petersburg, David McVicar’s chilling production won the South Bank Show Award for Opera when it was staged at English National Opera, London in 2007.
It now receives its first revival, conducted by former English National Opera, London Music Director Sir Charles Mackerras and reuniting the four principal singers of what The Sunday Times hailed as an ‘unbeatable cast’ led by Rebecca Evans and Timothy Robinson.
