The New National Theatre, Tokyo (NNTT) is presenting Lucia di Lammermoor from 18 Apr - 25 Apr, 2021.


Lucia di Lammermoor is one of the finest bel canto operas composed by Gaetano DONIZETTI. This production directed by Jean-Louis GRINDA was produced in collaboration with the Opèra de Monte-Carlo in Monaco and had its world premiere at the NNTT in 2017. Following that, it was performed at Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia in June 2019 and at the Opèra de Monte-Carlo in Monaco in November the same year. The lead role of Lucia will be sung by the stunning soprano Irina LUNGU, who mesmerised audiences with her impressive technique and expression in La Traviata in 2017. Edgardo will be performed by the popular bel canto tenor Lawrence BROWNLEE, while SUDO Shingo will take on the role of Enrico. Speranza SCAPPUCCI, the talk of houses worldwide, will take up the baton in her long-awaited NNTT debut.
