A unique element in this Sydney opera event, Dido and Aeneas by Purcell, is the creation of a new prologue, which has been beautifully penned by acclaimed actor and writer Kate Mulvany OAM.  This prologue will be performed by the Sorceress, adding context to the narrative.  
With a new take on a classic work of music and theatre, Pinchgut's Dido and Aeneas is simply unmissable. 


Pinchgut Opera is Australia's premiere Baroque opera company and is dedicated to presenting operatic masterpieces from the Baroque period. We celebrate the beauty and the breadth of emotions through music and the human voice. Other companies do the more familiar operas and early music repertoire excellently; Pinchgut helps audiences discover something new.

Award-winning writer Kate Mulvany OAM creates a new prologue for Dido and Aeneas | Pinchgut Opera

Acclaimed for its insightful and unique interpretations of the lesser-known works from the Baroque period, Pinchgut Opera also relishes the opportunity to put its signature stamp on one of the best-known operas in the repertory.


Dido and Aeneas is the perfect operatic gem. Few stories capture the essence of tragic love, heroism and destiny as intensely as the tale of the  Trojan hero Aeneas and the noble Queen Dido, the founder of Carthage.


It is this star-crossed love story, laden with the tumultuous interplay of duty, passion and fate, that Purcell, a master of music for the theatre, chose as the subject of his only true opera.



Australian star soprano Valda Wilson (Theodora, 2016) returns to Pinchgut in her role debut as Dido, with acclaimed baritone David Greco as Aeneas. Joining them is Kanen Breen (Ormindo, 2009; Platée, 2021) inhabiting the snarling malice of the Sorceress, and the ever-eloquent Sara Macliver (The Fairy Queen, 2003; Orfeo, 2004; Bajazet, 2015) as Belinda.
Dido and Aeneas features some of the most beautiful Baroque music of all time, including the final lament of Dido, darkly brooding and famously tragic, which was aptly featured in the final season of the HBO smash-hit series The White Lotus.
Musically resplendent and thrillingly fierce, Pinchgut’s presentation of Dido and Aeneas is not to be missed.
