Description:

Dido and Aeneas is Henry Purcell's 17th century opera that captures a fragment of The Aeneid by Virgil. This tragic tale of an affair between the queen of Carthage and her lover is centered on the themes of love, duty, and destiny. Sung in English with harpsichord and string quartet, this one-hour production is a perfect introduction to the genre of Opera.

Some scenes contain a strobing effect and may affect photosensitive viewers.
