Keats, Love and Myth Understandings – John Hegley @ Jacksons Lane
Oct 30 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm

A selection of verses on the above topics, devised as an adult show, but tolerable to some 10 year olds. Verses concerning Keats’s relationships with vegetables and surgery. A long look at love, both on, and off the buses and musings on the old chestnut of Orpheus’s disruptive turn around. Deep and daft. Come and Sing.

Don Giovanni, an Oxford ‘Don’, re-invented for a new generation @ Upstairs at the Gatehouse
Nov 6 @ 7:30 pm – 10:30 pm

Hampstead Garden Opera – Don Giovanni – 6 – 15 November 2015

Dear Friends and Supporters,

The city of Oxford is abuzz with the latest rumours, following the death one of the University’s most revered college heads.   The talk is that one of the Senior Fellows of his college, a Don with a large personal following – particularly among younger women – is somehow implicated in his death.

Stories of this man, popularly known as Don Giovanni, abound in both the city and the University (‘Town and Gown’).  His generosity, his wealth, his charm, his networks, his position and to some extent his creepy D.Phil. student, Leporello, protect him; and he is able to indulge his insatiable appetite for women fearless in his knowledge that his ‘victims’ will not betray him.  Many find him desperately attractive regardless of his reputation.   Some are brave – or foolhardy – enough to think they can resist him.  A few are deluded into believing they can reform him.   So far, nobody has blown the whistle and called ‘time’ on him.  But I can reveal that this is about to change.   The denouement will unfold in November, appropriately and with dramatic finality, on stage in the course of our production of Mozart’s Don Giovanni.    You just have to come and see this, for all sorts of reasons.

·         The story is vibrantly up-to-date in Stage Director Genevieve Raghu’s Oxford setting, using a new translation by Benjamin Hamilton.  This Don Giovanni can easily take his place among the galaxy of fallen celebrities of our day.

·       The Music Director for this production will be Jonathon Heyward, fresh from his triumph as outright winner of the 54th International Competition for Young Conductors held in Bésançon, France.   Jonathon has been Assistant Music Director for HGO since the autumn of 2014, and conducted one of the performances of Xerxes last April.   In his safe hands you will hear all the beauties of Mozart’s score, magnificently sung by HGO’s young singers and played by Musica Poetica London.

·       We shall be celebrating HGO’s 30th and final production at Upstairs at the Gatehouse – 27 different operas and three repeats in 15 years! From next May we shall be moving to Jacksons Lane Theatre on the corner of Archway Road and Jacksons Lane, opposite Highgate Underground station.   Those of us who have lived through all those eventful years will inevitably have some regrets, but there will be exciting new opportunities and challenges in our new home, including a bigger auditorium and better facilities.

Sundial Sundays: The Popinjays & The Metatrons @ Lauderdale House

Sundial Sundays: The Popinjays & The Metatrons

Join us in pretty Waterlow Park for a summer BBQ plus a double bill of FREE music as two well-established indie acts perform live on the Tea Lawn…

Indie veterans, The Popinjays, return after a 21 year hiatus. After a critically acclaimed John Peel session, three albums on One Little Indian Records, a US College Radio hit “Vote Elvis”, and tours with They Might Be Giants, The Fatima Mansions, and the Kitchens of Distinction, The Pops called it a day in 1994. Since 2015 they have shared bills with The Darling Buds, The Wonder Stuff, and The Wedding Present. Back with their original set of 90s Indie Pop, Wendy, Polly and the drum machine are currently working on a special limited-edition, legacy release, again with OLI.

The Metatrons are an Indie band from Hitchin. Their second album, “Patterns of Chaos” has recently been featured on BBC6 Music and Sky TV.

Relax on the grass with a burger and a cold drink while you enjoy family-friendly live music as part of our ongoing Sundial Sundays season.

The Popinjays & The Metatrons performance will take place between 2.30 and 4.30pm on 12 August. All sessions are free to attend and open to everyone. See the full programme of Sundial Sunday performances here.

Sundial Sundays have been generously sponsored by the Co-op Community Fund.

HGO Presents – “The Secret Marriage” @ Jacksons Lane Theatre
Nov 16 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

HGO presents a new production of Domenico Cimarosa’s masterpiece of opera buffa, ‘THE SECRET MARRIAGE’. ‘What a treat to bring Cimarosa’s sparkling, effervescent opera to life’, says director SINÉAD O’NEILL. ‘It was an immediate hit in 1792, and it’s easy to see why. Fast-paced, with direct, well-drawn characters, tangled love affairs, confusion and misunderstandings, it is light-hearted, touching, and charming.’

Directed by Sinéad O’Neill

Music Director Chris Hopkins

With the HGO Orchestra.

HGO Presents – “The Secret Marriage” @ Jacksons Lane Theatre
Nov 17 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

HGO presents a new production of Domenico Cimarosa’s masterpiece of opera buffa, ‘THE SECRET MARRIAGE’. ‘What a treat to bring Cimarosa’s sparkling, effervescent opera to life’, says director SINÉAD O’NEILL. ‘It was an immediate hit in 1792, and it’s easy to see why. Fast-paced, with direct, well-drawn characters, tangled love affairs, confusion and misunderstandings, it is light-hearted, touching, and charming.’

Directed by Sinéad O’Neill

Music Director Chris Hopkins

With the HGO Orchestra.
