Lorelei
Dive boldly into a striking world of fashion, desire and beauty when the siren song of Lorelei lures audiences to Queensland Performing Arts Centre’s Concert Hall from 6 to 13 March 2021.
This will be the much-anticipated Queensland premiere of the seductive new Australian opera cabaret after it was postponed in 2020, due to COVID-19.
The sumptuous, female-led production tells the story of the Lorelei, three sirens of song who sit atop the cliffs, singing sailors to their watery graves.
Moral dilemmas arise however for our irresistible sirens: Are they tiring of singing sailors to their deaths? Do they really deserve to die?
Lorelei is sung in English and staged in the Concert Hall, QPAC, with Queensland Symphony Orchestra.
