The Turn of the Screw

Celebrating the 100th anniversary of Benjamin Britten’s birth, we present Britten’s final chamber opera. The Turn of the Screw is a tale of good versus evil, natural versus the supernatural, possession and exorcism, set within the domestic proprieties of the Essex country house of Bly. Laura Bohn sings the role of the Governess faced with vision after ghostly vision.
