Part opera, part visual artwork, Operation:Orfeo takes you on a descent into the underworld in a work of astonishing precision and breathtaking beauty. Created by Denmark’s legendary Hotel Pro Forma, and featuring the Latvian Radio Choir, this masterpiece is opera stripped back and radically reimagined.
