Manchester Contemporary Youth Opera presents five brand new short operas. This one-hour show takes the audience from a hospital waiting room to an absurd shop, via a dark tale from a canal, and a painting that comes to life. But what did happen to Anne?
All performed by rising-star opera singers aged 18-25 and an ensemble of incredible instrumentalists who are part of the on-stage action.
