Celebrating love and life, this Opera Highlights production is set at a wedding and the show explores the stories that unfold on the sidelines of such an occasion.

The characters – four guests and four staff members – find their stories intertwined as the day progresses, with the audiences following them through a series of intimate exchanges

The variety of musical styles spans three centuries of history and include a series of arias, duets, trios and quartets as well as an overarching narrative designed by the company.

Director Laura Attridge said: “I can’t wait to share this joyful show with new communities across Scotland.”

Opera Highlights is supported by Friends of Scottish Opera, JTH Charitable Trust and the Scottish Opera Endowment Trust.

The event at Tongue Village Hall takes place on Thursday February 29 from 7.30pm. Tickets, priced at £18, can be booked at: www.scottishopera.org.uk
