November 6th will see a performance of the short comic opera "The Bear", written by William Walton and performed by Mid Wales Opera, see www.midwalesopera.co.uk.
Based on Anton Chekhov’s play, The Bear tells the tale of the widow, Madame Popova, interrupted from her constant mourning by the arrival of the rough-hewn debt collector Smirnov (the “bear” of the title). Passions run high and their sparring culminates in a duel – and an unexpected romance.
Full of entertainment, comedy, parody and great tunes, this intimate new production of The Bear, featuring three singers and five musicians, is a brilliant introduction for audiences new to opera and a great opportunity for all music lovers to hear Walton’s classic comedy in its fiftieth anniversary year.
We are offering free
tickets for those booking a break in Aberdaron at Manaros - costing as little as £360.50 for a 3 day self-catering break commencing on the 5th of September. This would be a wonderful opportunity to
combine an autumn break with a bit of culture and what promises to be a lot of
fun. It will also help the church community here in Aberdaron to build up St
Hywyn's as a venue for cultural events. The restaurants at the Ship Hotel and Ty Newydd are still
open so plenty of foodie options also.
