We would like to announce our Summer Opera event to see the popular opera "Madame Butterfly", performed by the English National Opera.
During the two intervals, wine and refreshments will be provided for our guests in a private area of the Sky Bar. ENO revives Anthony Minghella’s Olivier Award-winning Madam Butterfly as a tribute to the life of the great film director. Having won great acclaim for a series of remarkable films, including his Oscar-laden The English Patient, Minghella, alongside his wife and Associate Director Carolyn Choa, turned his creative genius to Puccini's masterpiece. Puccini's beautiful music underscores the emotional tale of a Japanese geisha girl and her devoted love for a heartless American naval lieutenant. With its sumptuous sets, stunning costumes and evocative use of Far Eastern theatre traditions, The Sunday Telegraph described it as 'the most beautiful show of the year in operatic London' Date: 8th July 2009 Time: 7:30 pm Venue: London Coliseum, St. Martin's Lane, Trafalgar Square, London WC2N 4ES Nearest tube: Charing Cross Tube &s; train, Leicester Square, Embankment, Covent Garden Parking: ENO patrons receive a 50% discount at the following Masterpark car parks: Cavendish Square, Chinatown (Newport Place), Marble Arch and Park Lane, Poland Street, Rochester Row, Spring Gardens and Whitcomb Street.
