Join us for an hour-long event with the always engaging Robert Holliston as he guides us through the eerie world of The Turn of the Screw by Benjamin Britten. You don’t need to attend Pacific Opera’s production to enjoy Inside Opera—we welcome everyone, whether you're a seasoned fan or just curious.
Seating is limited, so please RSVP through Eventbrite. Each session is insightful, friendly, and often a little funny—perfect for deepening your appreciation or discovering opera for the first time.
This October, step into Britten’s haunting chamber opera: a chilling psychological thriller where innocence meets the uncanny. Set in a remote English estate, The Turn of the Screw follows a young governess, two mysterious children, and a spiral of ghostly suspicion. With its hypnotic twelve-tone score and gothic beauty, this opera will leave you questioning reality long after the music fades.
