RCM Opera: The Cunning Little Vixen
24 November 2025 - 29 November 2025
Immerse yourself in the Britten Theatre as it is transformed into a forest for Janá膷ek’s opera The Cunning Little Vixen. Playful parallels are drawn between and animal and human life, hinting at shared characteristics while revelling in the variety of nature.
Through a tender series of snapshots of everyday mundanities, we witness love, longing and loss across species, made all the more profound through Janá膷ek’s lush orchestral writing intermixed with folk tunes. This is an opera about the power of nature and the cycle of life, and this production promises to lean into the chaos and episodic nature of the work, embracing Vixen’s own untameable wildness.
The RCM Opera Studio is supported by the Patrick and Helena Frost Foundation and Old Possum’s Practical Trust.
With the generous support of Aline Foriel-Destezet.
