Glyndebourne: No ordinary summer

Each summer, audiences flock for world-class opera to the Glyndebourne Festival, founded in 1934 by Lord John Christie. The festival didn’t take place during the Second World War, but started again in 1946. Then came 2020, the pandemic and lockdown. Let’s hope 2021 will see the Festival return!
In a newly released behind-the-scenes documentary the spirit and determination are revealed that ensured the show could go on.
This documentary is available to view on the website of Glyndebourne, and on YouTube until midday on Monday 4 January.
Despite the current lockdown, Glyndebourne is feeling optimistic that the Festival 2021 will go ahead in its full format from May until August. But so far no booking dates have been published.
