Experience the epic story of Handel's Messiah brought to life through a production that has captivated audiences since 2011.

Seen by over 14,600 audience, the Merry Opera is going on our 18th tour of the staged Messiah by George Frideric Handel: Twelve strangers seek spiritual comfort in their struggle to understand the world. Singing together in a church, they inspire each other to pick up the ragged ends of their faith and look to the future with hope.

A potpourri of popular arias that make you laugh, songs that make you cry and rollicking choruses that make you want to join in. Familiar favourites from operas by Puccini, Verdi, Mozart, Johann Strauss, Gilbert and Sullivan and more, with the odd (and very Merry) surprise thrown in.
