This 70th-anniversary production, directed by Robyn Nevin, respects the period and style of the play, and has been exceptionally well cast. Old-fashioned it may be, but it's highly entertaining.

Review: Awakening Shadow (Sydney Chamber Opera)

Despite exquisite vocal and musical performances, this staging of Benjamin Britten's Canticles is less than the sum of its otherwise beautiful parts, landing somewhere between performance art and oratorio.
