The Minotaur is showing from Thursday 17th January – Monday 28th January 2013 at the Royal Opera House. See Birtwistle’s fabled drama unfold at one of the world’s premier performing arts venues.

You will get to see the mythical tale laid out before their eyes as the half man half beast fights his inner demons and battles for survival. An introspective tale of heartbreak and unmanageable emotion, The Minotaur is perhaps the must see opera of 2013 as it makes its return to the Royal Opera House so don’t miss out.

You also have the chance to see an opera by one of the leading composers of his generation, Sir Harrison Birtwistle. Minotaur is as dark as it is enlightening and really shouldn’t be missed if you are a fan of the traditional art form so make sure you head to Covent Garden to experience one of the true marvels of modern opera.

London’s Royal Opera House truly hosts only the very best shows in town so you can expect the usual polish and exceptional production values in its latest drama, The Minotaur. The limited run at the opera house ensures that the two thousand seats in the building will likely be taken every night.
