Katie Mitchell’s acclaimed production of Lucia di Lammermoor returns to the Royal Opera House in 2024.

Katie Mitchell’s production brings a bold, feminist vision to Donizetti’s opera, based on Walter Scott’s gothic novel. 

Nadine Sierra and Liv Redpath, in her house debut, share the title role, with Giacomo Sagripanti and Richard Hetherington conducting an opera rich in stratospheric vocal highs and breath-taking ensembles.

Praised for its intelligence and searing insight, book tickets now to this five star production of Lucia di Lammermoor in the beautiful setting of the Royal Opera House in London.

Lucia di Lammermoor is playing at the Royal Opera House on selected dates from 19 April to 18 May 2024.

Caught in a family feud, and cornered by the men around her, Lucia becomes haunted by memories of the past. When she is tricked into getting married against her will, the scene is set for a shocking climax.
