Le Villi is an unforgettable dance opera full of passion, love and mysticism, and forms a world where past and present meet and where broken hearts are avenged. With Le Villi, Puccini’s first opera, he lays a foundation for his later oeuvre in which human emotion is central. He based Le Villi on the age-old Central European myths of the ‘Vilja’: young women who died of a broken heart. Previously, this myth was used to create the world famous ballet Giselle. Dutch composer Karmit Fadael has composed a prelude especially for Opera Zuid’s production, inspired by the theme of the dark forest as a metaphor for getting lost in life.

To direct Le Villi kiest Opera Zuid has chosen none other than the experienced choreographer, actress, aerialist and producer Dreya Weber (known from Pink!). EShe previously gave impressive performances in Opera Zuid’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Lady in the Dark. In this opera dansant, dance is completely interwoven with the story, mythology, dramaturgy and music. With this opera, Dreya Weber makes her opera directorial debut.

Be transported into a world where love and loss meet in an enchanting interplay of music, drama and dance.

Le Villi and the prelude last approximately 80 minutes and are sung in Italian with Dutch and English surtitles.
