THE FISHERMAN’S BRIDES is an opera that brings to life the eccentric characters of a Highland fishing village. Each song depicts a different story. It begins with Eilidh – a dreamy girl – picking stones from the shore, each stone the heart of a boy. We then meet John the fisherman, preparing to set sail, Mairi, the old woman who waits for her dead husband to return from sea and the village ladies, who gossip behind their twitching curtains. Meanwhile, the local farmer’s sheep are going missing and a mystery unfolds…

 

Mythological and symbolic, THE FISHERMAN’S BRIDES explores the ultimate sacrifice of one woman to bring her husband home. A dark, yet humorous production, with songs created from tide tables and sounds from the shore, this opera will transport you from the ocean floor to the depths of an old woman’s dusty heart.
