About This Event
The English National Opera will perform To Die for [A Comedy]. This comic opera is composed by Elena Langer and is structured in two acts. The performance is a black farce derived from Nikolai Erdman's play of 1928.
A comic opera in two acts composed by British-Russian Elena Langer, this exuberant black farce is based on Nikolai Erdman's twice-banned 1928 play The Suicide, in which a man's suicide is due to be broadcasted life on television - but what happens when he changes his mind? Darkly funny and clever, it is a satire about our fixation on fame, and the shameless exploitation for profit, entertainment and voyeurism of other people's misery, all which feel deeply relevant to our modern world.
