What: Leonard Bernstein’s Candide
The Domain, Sydney
www.sydneyfestival.org.au/2010/Free/Leonard-Bernsteins-Candide/
Sun, love, grass, opera, Oh My! Opera Australia and Sydney Festival join forces for a very special Opera in The Domain – Leonard Bernstein’s extravagant comedy, Candide. Based on Voltaire’s satiric novel of 1759, Candide is hilarious, harsh and hedonistic, and features some of American music theatre's greatest moments. Blindly following the advice of his tutor Pangloss (Paul McDermott), the relentlessly optimistic Candide (David Hobson) careers through a series of wild adventures and astonishing coincidences, to return home to his beloved Cunegonde (Emma Matthews) enlightened by a new, more realistic philosophy of life. Grab your opera and sun loving sweetheart and a few bottle of wine and settle down for the evening in the beautiful domain!
