Guildford Opera Comic Opera Double Bill Theatre & Performing Arts


The ‘Arabian Nights’ meets French farce in these two delightfully silly one-act comic operas.

In Bizet's Djamileh, a beautiful, wily slave girl wins a philanderer’s heart with deft use of a veil!
In von Weber's Abu Hassan, a debt-ridden husband and wife try to dupe a Caliph and a scheming creditor with hilarious results
Sung in English with a mix of dialogue, traditional Oriental dancing and a running time of about an hour each, this is opera at its most light-hearted and a rare opportunity to see two miniature gems
Fully staged, with chorus and professional soloists and the scintillating music of Bizet and Weber in a distinctive arrangement for piano
An evening of wonderful seductive fun!
