NZ Opera: It pays to be under 25!

It pays to be under 25!

The NBR New Zealand Opera’s Genesis Energy Spring Season of Turandot opens in Wellington on Saturday 13 October, and anyone aged under 25 can attend for just $25!

From 9:00am on the day of the show, under 25 year olds who present their ID in person at the Westpac St James Theatre box office, are eligible for the $25 ticket price, subject to ticket availability. Under 25 tickets cannot be reserved or put on hold, and only one ticket per ID can be purchased. Any ID that shows proof of age is accepted.

The NBR New Zealand Opera’s Genesis Energy Spring Season of Turandot is a stylish, dramatic, and ground-breaking production.

Conceived for Welsh National Opera by internationally renowned stage director Christopher Alden, his interpretation of Turandot casts a penetrating eye on power and conformity and will take audiences on a remarkable emotional journey.

Turandot is one of the greatest, most well known operas in the world, featuring music of savage beauty – the famous aria Nessun dorma is only one of many highlights. The compelling story is taken from Persian legend: the icy Chinese princess Turandot refuses to let any man have her. Princes seek her out but she ensures their defeat by demanding that they answer three impossible riddles – on pain of death. All have failed and been executed until an exiled prince enters into a battle of wits with the unattainable princess, with results both shocking and thrilling.

Take advantage of this special offer and plan for a memorable theatrical experience.
