Tosca

Experience Puccini's magnificent opera Tosca in a concentrated and intimate version, where the drama comes very close. In the course of one intense hour, we present the highlights – the most iconic arias, the strongest moments and the fiery love story that has made Tosca one of the greatest classics of opera literature.

As Tosca, you meet Margrethe Fredheim, who with warmth and power brings the passionate diva to life. Thomas Ruud is the brave painter Cavaradossi, and Jørgen Backer portrays the feared Scarpia with icy authority. At the piano sits Dorina, who elevates the drama in a chamber musical, immediate form.

With simple direction and a focus on the human game, this becomes a chamber play where everything is at stake – love, art and life. A unique opportunity to experience Tosca up close, sharply distilled and intensely conveyed.
