Donizetti - Don Pasquale

This is a comedy with zest, cream, and an Italian accent – think zabaglione! – in a new production directed by William Oldroyd with Dominic Wheeler conducting.

Keel Watson plays Don Pasquale, a stubborn, competitive, old batchelor – and here a tyrannic orchestra conductor – who wants to procure a young wife. He seems set to steal from his nephew a beautiful, and apparently submissive bride – but his clumsy wooing turns to painful woe when she reveals her own mind.
