In an intimate underground venue that draws you deep into the heart of Lucretia's story, experience Britten’s remarkable, gripping opera, staged by some of the brightest young opera professionals in the UK.
The Rape of Lucretia is the culmination of British Youth Opera (BYO)’s summer training programmes. Alongside coaching, mentoring and networking, a team of early-career creatives (director, designer and conductor) and singers create this production from scratch before it is performed over four nights in the atmospheric Thames Tunnel Shaft in Rotherhithe.
