Exciting young opera troupe Pop-up Opera bring their production, La Serva Padrona & Rita to The Bull, Highgate on Tuesday 18th of June at 7.30pm
La Serva Padrona & Rita
Two one-act operas take place on the same stage, their scenes and stories intertwined. One mute servant appears in both, tying the two tales together.
A scene of commotion arises when the dominating Rita and her timid husband Peppe receive an unexpected visit from Rita’s first husband Gaspar. Each believing the other to have died, Gaspar unknowingly arrives seeking Rita’s death certificate so he can remarry. Peppe sees it as an opportunity to escape, as Gaspar is still Rita’s legal husband. The two men agree to a game, the winner of which will have to stay with Rita. Each of them tries to lose, but Gaspar cunningly manipulates Rita and Peppe to fall in love again.
Meanwhile, wealthy old bachelor Uberto is kept under the thumb of his maid Serpina.
He enlists his manservant Vespone to help him get rid of Serpina by finding him a wife. Serpina convinces Vespone to trick Uberto into marrying her. Their elaborate plan works and by the time Uberto has agreed to marry Serpina he realises he has loved her all along.
“Pop-Up Opera aim to take opera out to the ‘hesitant, as well as to dedicated opera lovers’. I confess to having been hesitant, but I’m suddenly in danger of becoming dedicated.” Everything Theatre
“…a completely fresh approach to a traditionally fusty genre. It’s frenetic, light-hearted and engaging.”

“If any group can make opera converts, this one can.” Broadway Baby
“If you want an entertaining evening, this is the opera to see.” British Theatre Guide

This will be a “conversation event” in French. There will be 40 topics to choose from, ranging from the anecdotal to the really challenging. Discussions will be with random partners, with several “all changes”. Fun guaranteed, plus an opportunity to speak a bit of French together.
We meet once a month, each time at a different pub, in Highgate. This month, June, it’s The Bull with its friendly atmosphere and on site microbrewery. It’s always a pleasure comparing the beers so lets see which is our favourite this time.
Everyone welcome, it’s a chance to meet old friends as well as new people over a drink.
