A Flowering Tree
Concert Hall QPAC
Opera Queensland opens its anticipated 2019 season with the Queensland premiere of A Flowering Tree, performed at QPAC from April 2 to 6.
This Helpmann Award winning production of A Flowering Tree features a stellar cast along with grand visuals.
Be swept away by the imagery, the magic and the romance of this resplendent retelling of a traditional Indian folk tale, which explores themes of magic, metamorphosis and the healing power of deep and selfless love. This contemporary love story is not only a beautiful opera, it is relevant and relatable for our times.
Australian powerhouse soprano, Eva Kong, plays Kumudha, a beautiful, young woman with the magical ability to transform herself into a tree covered in exquisite blooms, but arrogance, jealousy and family rivalries cause catastrophic results. British-Australian tenor, Adrian Dwyer, plays the Prince and American bass-baritone, Craig Colclough, plays the role of Narrator.
