Così fan tutte, Mozart’s immortal last Italian comic opera, is so ideally suited to the narropera format, that narropera might well have been invented solely for this great masterpiece, so well does it bring to life its details and intricacies.
Beautiful singing, witty story telling, translation of each aria text, combine to make crystal clear the poetry of the composer and his librettist, in a swift-moving entertainment.
A hallmark of Narropera is the condensing of each opera to 85 minutes and performance without an interval, so as not to disturb the narration of a great story. Star soprano sings eight magnificent arias taken from several of the opera’s characters. Musical and story-telling traditions embrace one another in song and rhetoric, as they have done for millennia.

Noël Coward’s ‘improbable farce – Blithe Spirit’ was written in 1941. Its focus is one that underlies all of Coward’s best comedies – the perils of long-term commitment. Coward’s hero, Charles Condomine, is a popular novelist who is famously spooked by his past. Married to the super-rational Ruth, his second marriage, he rashly holds a séance to research a thriller he is writing about a homicidal medium. But a jokey experiment causes marital mayhem when, with the aid of the feisty Mme Arcati, he finds his first wife, Elvira, has suddenly materialised. What follows is a spectral variation on the eternal triangle, with Charles torn between two equally demanding women.
Coward wrote Blithe Spirit in five days during the second world war. At the premiere the audience walked on planks over rubble caused by an air-raid to watch a play that seemed to laugh in the face of death. The plot is a parody of a folk tale – the witchdoctor wreaking havoc among superstitious villagers. The dialogue is pure Coward, acidic and nonchalant. “Anything interesting in the Times?” “Don’t be silly, Charles.”. Following its opening the play was an enormous success running for 1,997 performances in the West End. It is a play that ‘still startles and delights, Noël Coward’s most inventive comedies’ (The Telegraph, March 2014)

Here’s our GuitarFest 2016 line-up!
Friday 28th October 2016 – Sunday 30th October 2016
We have lined up three exceptional artists to perform for you, our highly discerning Isle of Man music audience, at GuitarFest 2016.
Our headline act on Saturday 29th is multiple music award-winning Welsh singer-songwriter and guitarist Martyn Joseph – a 30 year veteran of the music industry who has been compared to Springsteen, John Mayer, Dave Matthews and others. Martyn is a unique voice – with 32 albums under his belt. He has toured with Jools Holland, Ani DiFranco, Suzanne Vega, Mike and The Mechanics and Celine Dion as well as many solo shows – described by many as the best live music experience of their lives.
Friday 28th is a “nu-coustic” instrumental night featuring Mike Dawes, a fingerstyle genius who tours internationally opening for (and playing lead guitar for) Justin Hayward (Moody Blues). Our special guest opening act on both nights is Grammy award-winner, Amrit Sond.
GuitarFest 2016 gigs will be at Peel Centenary Centre plus a Guitar Masterclass from Mike Dawes on Saturday afternoon. We’re also holding an industry brunch on the morning of Sunday 30th in Douglas where our visiting perfomers will talk about working in the music industry, tales from tours, and take questions from the audience.
We are delighted that More Music 3FM has agreed to be our media partner for the event. We are also most grateful to record our thanks for support this year from the Arts Council – Isle of Man, Aston International, Dougherty Quinn (for the first time), Swagelok Limited and Isle of Man Steam Packet Company. We are most grateful for the support of Creative Industries (Isle of Man Department of Economic Development) who are sponsoring the industry brunch.
Tickets are now available online from http://www.etickets.im/jp and in person Celtic Gold Peel, Shakti Man Ramsey, Peter Norris Music Douglas or Thompson Travel Port Erin.
A chance to attend a workshop with Mike Dawes, mentor from TV’s Sky Arts Guitar Star show. Some group work and one to one coaching available. £10 tickets in advance.
