(Based on George Crabbe’s narrative poem 'The Borough' – the story of an ostracised fisherman on the North Sea coast, the resulting opera 'Peter Grimes' was premiered in 1945 and kick-started an operatic renaissance in Britain overnight.



(Note: at 2pm-3pm and 4pm-5pm in the Clore Ballroom, a free pre-concert event. The LPO and Southbank Centre present Britten's moving setting of the Chester Miracle play, 'Noye's Fludde', conducted by Benjamin Ellin. No ticket required.)
