Alcina & The Sofa
Project Overview
Despite their diverse origins, centuries apart and rooted in different cultural contexts, both operas were written by women and share profound thematic connections. Female empowerment is central to both stories, as are ideas about seduction, entrapment, humour and transformation of the male body.
The Royal Irish Academy of Music's double bill production creatively reimagines two operas: La Liberazione di Ruggiero dall'Isola di Alcina (1625) and The Sofa (1957) at the Samuel Beckett Theatre.
