For You
A new opera by Michael Berkeley and Ian McEwan
Music Theatre Wales
with Theatr Brycheiniog
Co-promoted by The Guardian Hay Festival
Widely acknowledged as the greatest living British novelist, Ian McEwan has written his first opera libretto for Music Theatre Wales. Brimming with
all the hallmark elements of McEwan’s work - deluded, destructive passion and lives altered forever by a tragic error of perception and understanding
- For You is another masterwork from a writer at the height of his powers.
Inspired by the text, celebrated composer Michael Berkeley has written some of his most passionate and theatrical music to date. Together they have
created a remarkable work that is already generating a huge amount of interest across the UK and beyond.
A remarkable collaboration between two of the UK’s leading creative figures, For You promises to be a sell-out event not to be missed. Early booking
recommended.
