The Jacques Offenbach opera tells the story of German writer E.T.A Hoffmann as he navigates a series of three romantic relationships with three young students, all of which end in tragedy. Deeply affected by these experiences, he turns to art and poetry to express his lack of enthusiasm for love and all of its pitfalls. The show features romantic and fantastical stage sets and is accompanied by a brilliant array of musical pieces, including ‘The Doll Song’ and ‘Barcarolle.’ Produced by world-acclaimed French director Francesca Zambello and set designer Peter J. Davison, the opera is punctuated by its incredible set designs and flamboyant costumes that are sure to dazzle.
