New National Theatre Opera: Peter Grimes Unofficial
New Production of Benjamin Britten
2026/11/23(mo.) 14:00 Starting
Benjamin Britten’s masterpiece opera *Peter Grimes* will be presented as a new production for the New National Theatre’s 2026/2027 season. Set in a fishing village on the east coast of England, the opera depicts the psychological turmoil of Peter, a fisherman who becomes entangled in the tragic death of an apprentice and is increasingly isolated as the villagers cast suspicious glances his way—all portrayed through powerful music that evokes the surging waves and raging storms of the sea. This new production, directed by Robert Carsen—whose work was highly acclaimed at La Scala in Milan—highlights the violence of group psychology that resonates even in modern society. Kazushi Ohno, the opera’s Artistic Director, will conduct, and world-renowned tenor Brandon Jovanovich will star in the title role. The cast brings together a group of internationally acclaimed, talented performers, including Sally Matthews as Ellen and Jordan Shanahan as Captain Balstrode. Accompanied by the rich, resonant sounds of the New National Theatre Chorus and the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, we invite you to fully immerse yourself in this gripping human drama.
