RBO 2026-27: The Royal Opera – Tosca
Running time: 195 mins
Cast: Aleksandra Kurzak, Saimir Pirgu, Christopher Maltman, Aled Hall
Floria Tosca and Mario Cavaradossi live for each other and for their art. But when Cavaradossi helps an escaped prisoner, the lovers make a deadly enemy in the form of Baron Scarpia, Chief of Police. At the mercy of Scarpia’s twisted desires, Tosca is forced to make a horrific bargain: sleeping with the man she hates, in order to save the man she loves. Can she find a way out?
Oliver Mears’s acclaimed production returns, setting Puccini’s operatic thriller in a contemporary, war-torn Rome. Daniel Oren conducts Aleksandra Kurzak, who returns to the title role, joined by Saimir Pirgu as Cavaradossi and Christopher Maltman as Baron Scarpia.
This is a live production from the Opera House stage, it will be sung in Italian with English subtitles and there will be two intervals during the production.
