Benjamin Brittens opera is based on Shakespeares popular comedy, which follows the consequences of a falling-out between the fairy-king Oberon and his queen, Tytania. Mistaken identities, confused lovers and alarming transformations are the result. From the sliding string chords of the magic wood to the rustics well-intentioned entertainment, Brittens ear for beguiling orchestration and melodic invention will enchant and entice.Countertenor John Holiday and soprano Sydney Mancasola lead the cast in an all-new production created by Chas Rader-Shieber and Jacob A. Climer as we return to a work that stands as one of Des Moines Metro Operas most special memories and signature operas.
