Glyndebourne on Tour: Saul shows on the big screen at Milton Keynes Gallery

A wonderful three hour on screen adventure will be waiting for opera lovers at MK Gallery this Friday (November 4) with the Glyndebourne on tour 2016 delivery, Saul.

The pre-recorded piece boasts a musical score of heart-breaking beauty and intensity, as Saul takes us into a nightmare world of madness and despair.

This powerful and highly acclaimed production, filmed live in Festival 2015, delves deep into Handel’s grand setting of the well-known Biblical tale of the first King of Israel’s love and loathing for his eventual successor, David.

We watch Saul crumble before our eyes, as dramatically as Shakespeare’s King Lear, as he watches David win everyone’s heart – including that of his son, Jonathan.

The running time will be in the region of three hours, including a 20 minute interval.
