This September, opening the 2022/23 Season at the London Coliseum, the English National Opera (ENO) presents Puccini`s much-loved thriller, Tosca. Receiving its UK premiere, this staging was last seen at The Finnish National Opera in 2018.

A stylishly traditional take on Puccini`s riveting classic, this is a tale of danger, passion and murder. With her artist beau Cavaradossi competing for her affections against the sadistic police chief Scarpia, Tosca`s story becomes intertwined with the tumultuous political landscape of Rome. When passion and politics collide, love can prove a fatal weakness.

A production dripping in operatic grandeur and `a stunning thriller` (Helsingin Sanomat), this is the first work by Director Christof Loy to be staged by the ENO. Loy is one of the most sought after opera and theatre directors. He has a long-standing, collaborative relationship with many of the world`s leading opera houses and has received high acclaim for his productions.
