Theodora

In Theodora, viewers are taken into a modern-day reimagining of the opera, where the titular character, a religious fundamentalist, leads a resistance against Roman occupation. The film explores themes of oppression and bravery, showcasing Theodora's secret plan to attack the Roman embassy and the consequences that follow.

This production is anchored by the music of Handel, with the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House under the baton of Harry Bicket. The combination of drama and music creates a unique narrative experience that appeals to fans of both genres. The modern twist on a classic story makes it relevant for today's audience, while still honoring its operatic roots.
