WNO’s brand-new production of Peter Grimes made a massive splash with our audiences over the weekend, with booming choruses, dramatic arias and not to forget the famous Sea Interludes.
We’ve been overjoyed by all the positive feedback we’ve received so far! Let’s find out what our audiences in Cardiff had to say about the production.
