Technical precision and breath taking beauty are drawn together to portray a heartbreaking love story  full of passion and loss.  This acclaimed production by Maina Gielgud, the ethereal designs by Peter Farmer and the haunting music of Adolphe Adam, will linger with you long after the final curtain call.
