Green Opera, the award-winning sustainable opera company and arts charity, returns to the Grimeborn Opera Festival with TESTAMENT—a bold and thought-provoking journey through four centuries of vocal music. This immersive performance explores humanity’s evolving relationship with nature, blending timeless masterpieces with modern revelations.
The evening features dramatic stagings of Monteverdi’s gripping Il combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda, Janáček’s emotionally charged The Diary of One Who Disappeared, and the long-awaited theatrical premiere of Libby Larsen’s Try Me, Good King.
With sustainability at its core, Green Opera continues to redefine opera for a new era—where art and environmental consciousness unite.
SEATS FOR SEEDS: For every ticket sold, Green Opera plants a tree with Eden Reforestation Projects.
