· 1 min de lecture · langue: en

The Royal Opera House's production of George Frideric Handel's Alcina opened this week, running from 15 September to 3 October, according to the Guardian.

The opera tells the story of an enchantress, Alcina, who lures men to her island and transforms her former lovers into beasts, wild animals or other objects once she tires of them, the Guardian reported.

The Guardian published a gallery of behind-the-scenes photographs taken by photographer Tristram Kenton on the final day of rehearsals, showing the staging described as "colourful and larger-than-life."

The production marks a return of the opera to the Royal Opera House stage, according to the report.

Further details on the cast, creative team and director of this staging were not included in the available material.
