Il tabarro and Gianni Schicchi at the Belfast Grand Opera House  Thursday 26 - Fri 27 May

Il tabarro (the cloak) and Gianni Schicchi couldn't be more different - yet both one hour operas show Puccini as a master of the theatre who speaks to the heart.

The highly-charged drama Il tabarro takes place on a barge moored in Paris. Puccini's haunting masterpiece, with big lyrical roles for soprano (Julie Unwin), tenor (Charne Rochford), and baritone (Simon Thorpe), is justly famous, though not often heard.

Gianni Schicchi is a brilliant Florentine comedy. The greedy family of poor, dead Buoso dry their eyes to claim his fortune; however the wily Schicchi (Richard Moseley Evans) also has his eyes set on the inheritance.

In the middle of Liam Steel's pacy new production comes one of Puccini's sweetest arias, ‘O! mio babbino caro' (sung by Paula Sides). English Touring Opera's Music Director Michael Rosewell conducts.

Thursday and Friday at 7.30pm: £16 - £36.50

*Family Ticket: £50 and Under 18's Half Price
