About Turandot
A new co-production with Irish National Opera. An Emperor’s court decays around him; a princess, haunted by inherited trauma, plays a deadly game of riddles; a visiting prince takes one look and decides to risk his life for love. The stakes could not be higher.
World-renowned Scottish director Sir David McVicar brings his visionary storytelling to bear on Puccini’s epic, final opera in this, its centenary year. Reuniting with the creative team behind 2023’s award-winning Il trittico, McVicar confronts the darkness of the work head on, neither flinching from Turandot’s trauma nor excusing Prince Calaf’s recklessness. Instead, he uncovers a deeply moving tale of two lost souls trapped between fear and desire, until compassion and courage change everything.
Stuart Stratford conducts The Orchestra of Scottish Opera and a stellar cast, with Trine Bastrup Møller, Victor Starsky, Insung Sim, and Hye-Youn Lee (La bohème 2025), through some of opera’s most stirring music – including ‘Nessun dorma’ and ‘In questa reggia’. With opulent set and costume designs by Charles Edwards and Doey Lüthi, and spectacular lighting by Ben Pickersgill, Turandot’s gothic splendour comes to life in what promises to be a production like no other.
