Please join us on Saturday 10 October in St. Mary's Wedmore for...
Lights, Camera... Opera!
​
Inspired by some of opera's most memorable moments on screen, this special concert features outstanding soloists including Dominic Bowe, who starred as the villainous Count in our production of The Marriage of Figaro in 2023 and Freya Jacklin who played Flora in La Traviata in 2025.

We’re excited to be hearing rising stars soprano Shafali Jalota and tenor Jamie Formoy for the first time.

​With the bar open to welcome you and a glam dress code (optional, but who doesn’t love glitz?), it's the perfect excuse to enjoy a memorable night out with friends. The seats are unreserved, so please come early to choose yours.

​Tickets are just £15 (or £10 if you are under 25). You can buy them for cash from the lovely Wedmore Village Store team, or book online using: https://www.ticketsource.com/wedmoreopera/t-qmaerrk
