Albina Shagimuratova in June will return to the Royal Opera House in London and make a role debut as Aspasia in Mozart’s early opera “Mitridate, Re di Ponto”

Graham Vick’s 1991 production for The Royal Opera is ‘considered a milestone in the staging of 18th-century opera’ (The Guardian). Vick draws parallels between the stylized form of Baroque opera and the traditions of Japanese and Indian stagecraft – influences echoed in Paul Brown’s stunningly opulent designs.
This excellent cast includes Michael Spyres as Mitridate, Salome Jicia as Sifare, Bejun Metha as Farnace, Lucy Crowe as Ismene.
