Odyssey Opera Continues Wilde Opera Nights with Patience, or Bunthorne's Bride

Saturday, 3 June 2017, 12.30am

Odyssey Opera completes its Wilde Opera Nights series, a season-long exploration of operatic works inspired by the writings and world of Oscar Wilde. For two nights, Odyssey Opera presents a fully-staged performance of Arthur Sullivan and W.S. Gilbert’s early hit, Patience; or, Bunthorne’s Bride (1881). Inspired by the aesthetes of Victorian England of the late 1800s, this two-act comic opera delves into the world that Wilde skewered with his pen. Directed by Frank Kelley, with conductor Gil Rose and full orchestra and chorus, Patience welcomes back several Odyssey Opera alumni to the stage including lead vocalists Aaron Engrebreth (baritone) as Reginald Bunthorne and Sara Heaton (soprano) as Patience.
