VERDI'S RIGOLETTO (NORTH WALES OPERA)

VARIOUS PRICES

14 May 2026

Chester Town Hall

North Wales Opera come to Chester for its first time present Verdi’s Rigoletto. This is one of the most famous operas with melodies you will instantly recognise. From the fireworks of Gilda’s Caro Nome to the greatly recognised La donna è mobile! Like many of its class, this opera can be expressed in a few sentences and is likely the best to express the potency of rueful karma and the underbelly of schadenfreude.

Under the proven leadership and artistry of international soprano Anne Williams-King and her team, North Wales Opera add this opera to their repertoire.
