Verdi’s heartbreaking tale of love and loss returned to Welsh National Opera this September as part of our Autumn Season. One of the most commonly performed operas of all time, this classic is always sure to impress, and we heard from our Cardiff audience what they thought of Sir David McVicar’s production.
Audience members took to Twitter and shared their thoughts with us at @WNOtweet or @OperaCenCym, and by using the hashtag #WNOtraviata.
Our Facebook page was filled with positive feedback following opening night:
Paul Twyman – A very good show, great costumes and the music – of course!
Jo Vos – The role of Violetta was sung beautifully.
Denise Haywood – Stunning
Fiona Allan - Congratulations Stacey on her UK debut performance. A wonderful Violetta
