Albert Herring


Portland Opera
March 14-30, 2008

Summary:

Benjamin Britten’s rollicking comic chamber opera actually is all about the search for a great woman—the perfect May Queen. Alas, alack however, in this rural English village, there’s no fittingly chaste young woman to be found . . . at least according to Lady Billows, who lords it over the entire town.
