Verdi’s masterpiece in a Grand new production
For their latest tour of Verdi’s tragedy, the cast includes Sarah Helsby Hughes as Violetta, (who performed the role to acclaim in the original Heritage production five years ago), Nicholas Sales as her lover Alfredo, and Tom McVeigh as Giorgio Germont.
It’s a completely new production, with sumptuous costumes and set created for this tour, and is accompanied by a seven-piece orchestral ensemble.
