Manon Lescaut: Glyndebourne Festival Opera (Gardiner) (UK-import)
Puccini's first major success is based around the 18th century novel by Abbé Prévost and tells the story of the doomed infatuation of Chevalier des Grieux for the beautiful, fun-loving Manon. This production was directed by Graham Vick, with John Eliot Gardiner conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
