Award winning Education project, Jackdaws OperaPLUS, returns with a reworking of last year’s production of Donizetti’s The Love Potion (L’elisir d’amore), to celebrate the composer’s 220th Anniversary year. Sung in English and set in the heartland of Somerset, Jackdaws OperaPLUS makes Donizetti’s comic tale of unrequited love accessible to new audiences of all ages.
