About

Handel’s Alcina is set on an enchanted island where Ruggiero lives under the sorceress Alcina’s spell, while his fiancée Bradamante arrives in disguise to rescue him. As misunderstandings spread, Alcina’s power begins to fail. Premiered in London in 1735, it features some of Handel’s most famous arias, celebrated for their beauty and expressive power. Don't miss the David Seligman Opera School perform with full orchestra this summer.

Sung in Italian with surtitles.

Composer George Frideric Handel

Director Sophie Gilpin

Conductor James Southall

Version by Peter Jones

Pick a Price

Thrifty: Don’t have the cash right now? We welcome you with open arms.

Going rate: If you can afford to, this price helps the arts industry to keep doing what we’re doing.

Pay it forward: If you can afford to, please consider giving a little extra to help more people access the arts.

About Pick a Price

We believe passionately that the arts are for everyone, and that no one should be excluded because of their financial circumstances. Our ‘Pick A Price’ events give everyone a chance to experience live performances at a price they can afford. With the cost of living increasing, we know that accessing cultural events can be difficult for many in our audience. The Pick A Price model offers people who can afford to pay the going rate - or more - the chance to support others who can’t.
