★★★½ Emerging artists of @VictorianOpera interpret numerous oddballs of history in this handsomely staged production of a forgotten mid-century gem.

What a fabulously zany collection of divertissements English Eccentrics is! Everyone has their idiosyncrasies - they just need to be made room for. It was such a privilege to see this pool of talented young artists creating memorable theatre in this @VictorianOpera production.

So, I’d better lap up tonight’s opening performance of @VictorianOpera’s English Eccentrics @UniMelb’s Union Theatre. Given how rarely composer Malcom Williamson’s 1964 work is staged, it’s highly unlikely I’ll get to see it again.

★★★★☆ 'This new production of Mozart’s Idomeneo marked what one can only hope will be an ongoing collaboration between Victorian Opera and Opera Australia.'

'Mozart took the outmoded form and did something highly original with it, infusing it with a lyricism and humanity not seen before.'

"#VictorianOpera and @OperaAustralia's co-production of #Idomeneo showcases stunning singing, majestic music from @MelbChamberOrch, and theatrical design excellence
- achieved through set design being successfully blended with vivid video design and captivating cinematography. Rarely performed in Australia, Idomeneo is a night of opera that you don’t want to miss - ⭐⭐⭐⭐

In a noble and heart-warming reimagining of Mozart’s 18th century reimagined Greek myth, @VictorianOpera and @OperaAustralia’s Idomeneo has 6 months to tweak with to add further polish. My thoughts @arts_review: artsreview.com.au/idomeneo/

"As Idamante’s love interests, Kathyrn Radcliffe’s strong soprano makes light work of Ilia and though Elettra might lose the man, Olivia Cranwell wins the audience with her wild, wonderful performance."
- Bridget Davies in @theage
Mozart's Idomeneo plays Thursday 6 July and Saturday 8 July at 7.30pm at the @PalaisTheatre in a special coproduction with @OperaAustralia and @MelbChamberOrch
