How to book Peter Grimes tickets
Benjamin Britten's Peter Grimes is one of the must-see genius works of 20th-century opera. Powerful and haunting music of extraordinary emotional intensity brings alive a disturbing story of prejudice, suspicion and persecution in a small fishing village on the East Anglian coast. The power of the sea and the changing moods of the landscape are famously evoked in rare subtlety by this great music as the background to a drama that requires the richest of musical and dramatic interpretation.

Ben Heppner as the outsider fisherman of the title and Amanda Roocroft as the school mistress Ellen Orford - steadfast in her sympathy for Peter - are at the centre of an impressive cast under conductor Andrew Davis making a very welcome return to the royal Opera House. Willy Decker's production has its first revival by the Royal Opera, bringing an intense focus to an introverted and judgemental world, in which intolerance leads to tragedy. The music and the drama are deeply intertwined in a great opera of menace and beauty, threat and compassion.
