The Descent of Orpheus

His lover lost and a journey into darkness. Orpheus risks everything for Eurydice - what would you risk for love?

A story that is both familiar, and somehow made new. We invite you to immerse yourself in the cool waters of the river Styx, and descend into the Underworld to answer the ultimate question: How far will you go for love?

Led by some of the foremost creative leaders of Baroque music and movement, Springboard Opera presents the Queensland premiere of The Descent of Orpheus by Charpentier. Here you’ll find a rich tapestry of period dance set next to storytelling for a modern audience, an orchestra comprised of authentic period instruments interpreted with a modern lens of sensitivity.

Presented in our venue partner, The Grand on Ann.

Location: Grand on Ann, 311 Ann Street, Brisbane City.

This event is proudly sponsored by Brisbane City Council. For more information, please visit the Springboard Opera website.
