About Mansfield Park
Waterperry Opera Festival 2022
An opera by Jonathan Dove
A libretto by Alasdair Middleton
After a novel by Jane Austen
The much-beloved production of Jonathan Dove’s Mansfield Park will be embarking on an 11-date national tour this summer.
This period-perfect opera brings Jane Austen’s world to life with charming wit and stunning music.
Directed by Rebecca Meltzer (Hansel and Gretel, Ariel), this production has received widespread critical acclaim and sold-out runs at Waterperry in 2018 and 2019.
Accompanied on the piano, 10 singers perform as an ensemble of loveable characters pulling at our heartstrings and making us laugh out loud.
This intimate production brings audiences right into the centre of the action. Perfect for Austen and music lovers alike, be prepared to be whisked away.
