Gianni Schicchi (or Where There's A Will)

OperaUpClose

Puccini’s classic in a new English version by Hannah Kumari, re-orchestrated by Vahan Salorian. Featuring some of the most famous music in opera and inspired by popular modern-day ‘whodunnits’ such as The White Lotus and Knives Out, Gianni Schicchi (or Where There’s A Will) brings Puccini roaring into the 21st Century.

Sky Arts Award winner PJ Harris directs a stellar cast in a brilliantly subversive and satirical take on this enduringly popular family farce that asks - who should be held to account in a world where everyone is out for themselves?
