In 2008, Lehman Brothers bank collapsed during the global financial crisis. The bank had began over 160 years earlier as a small shop in Alabama.

Puccini’s one act opera SUOR ANGELICA is usually performed as the middle part of a triptych (with Il tabarro and the more famous, Gianni Schicchi) each of which contain a hidden death. Here, the work which premiered at The Met in 1918, is included as a stand alone production in English National Opera’s current season, reimagined in 1960s Ireland by designer Yannis Thavoris.

Shakespeare’s third tragic Roman tale, (completed c.1608 shortly after Antony and Cleopatra), tells of Caius Marcius a high born patrician who as deputy commander of the Roman army, earns considerable respect, prestige and the agnomen of Coriolanus when he successfully defeats the Volscians through a siege of their city of Corioli.

Penned by Jonathan Tolins and directed by Kirk Jameson who was visible on press night up in the tech box which overlooks the stage (clutching a fluffy dog throughout the performance), BUYER AND CELLAR is the fictional story of an out of work gay actor Alex More played by Rob Madge, who lands a weirdly nightmarish dream job at Dream Home, Barbra Streisand’s oceanfront property on Zumirez Drive, Malibu.
