With tickets for our South Yarra performance of Orphée et Eurydice almost completely snapped up, we’re delighted to share what’s next…
After selling out regional Victoria in 2025… the laughter returns.
Lyster Opera is proud to announce another wonderful production at the Irene Mitchell Studio:
Nicolai’s The Merry Wives of Windsor
📍 Irene Mitchell Studio, South Yarra
📅 One performance only — 18 July 2026 at 2pm
After captivating audiences across regional Victoria, this joyous, fast-paced comedy makes its triumphant Melbourne debut. Shakespeare’s beloved tale springs to life through Nicolai’s sparkling score, performed with the original dialogue in a deliciously witty retelling.
Join the scheming wives of Windsor as they outwit the gloriously deluded Sir John Falstaff in a whirlwind of disguises, deception, and delightful mayhem.
Featuring a stellar cast including German Australia grant winner and Opera Australia artist Darcy Carroll, Green Room Award nominee Teresa Ingrilli, Herald Sun award winner Rebecca Rashleigh, and a host of outstanding Victorian performers.
One performance. No second chances.
If Orphée has taught us anything, it’s this: don’t wait.
