After thrilling audiences with her performances in West Australian Opera’s Opera in the Park productions of La traviata and La bohème, acclaimed local soprano Elena Perroni returns home from New York City to perform the title role in Tchaikovsky's Iolanta.

The production marks Elena's debut at His Majesty's Theatre; the venue where she first experienced live opera!

His Majesty's Theatre, Perth

Tchaikovsky’s last opera tells the tale of a beautiful woman who falls in love. At least, that’s all it should be about.

Instead, we witness the story of a woman who is held captive, not by her blindness, but by the ignorance and assumptions of those around her.

In a world premiere production, WAO has worked with the blind and vision impaired community of Perth to update the libretto and develop a production that tells the story from Iolanta’s view.

True to the sumptuous beauty of Tchaikovsky’s music, this season will have more than soaring voices and sweeping melodies. The production will take the audience on a journey to discover the lived experience of the blind and vision impaired, to see the world the way they see it, in a truly immersive event experience.
