Flight has THREE performances at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver
Saturday, February 8, 7:30PM | Thursday, February 13, 7:30PM | Sunday, February 16, 2:00PM
Vancouver Opera’s 65th season soars into 2025 with a new production of Flight, a contemporary masterpiece by renowned composer Jonathan Dove. Celebrated as the greatest opera of the past 30 years, Flight graces the Queen Elizabeth Theatre stage for three performances in February 2025.
Inspired by a remarkable true story—one that also inspired the Tom Hanks movie The Terminal—Flight masterfully blends humour, heartbreak, and hope into an unforgettable operatic experience. This stunning production is helmed by the internationally acclaimed Canadian creative team of Morris Panych (director), Ken MacDonald (set designer) Dana Osborne (costume designer) and Alan Brodie (Lighting Designer). Their visionary approach promises to bring a fresh and compelling perspective to the Vancouver Opera debut of Dove’s work. Opera audiences may recall its acclaimed Canadian premiere by Pacific Opera (Victoria) in February 2020.
