George Benjamin and Martin Crimp return to the Royal Opera House for an enigmatic new operatic fable staged in the Linbury Theatre. 

An ordinary day. A terrible event. The death of her infant child sets in motion one woman’s search for a life-restoring miracle. All she needs to do – in the course of a single day – is find one genuinely happy human being. But when every encounter ends in disappointment, she turns finally to the mysterious owner of a magnificent garden…

Following the success of Written on Skin (2013) and Lessons In Love and Violence (2018), George Benjamin and Martin Crimp return to the Royal Opera House for an enigmatic new operatic fable staged in the Linbury Theatre. Corinna Niemeyer (The Rape of Lucretia) conducts a dynamic young cast, co-directed by Daniel Jeanneteau and Marie-Christine Soma.
