Royal Opera House Live 2019: La Traviata

Certificate
12A
Running Time
210 mins

Hot courtesan Violetta falls for toff Alfredo and they shack up together. But having sacrificed her life of luxury for love, she finds herself implored by his dad, Giorgio, to dump him for the sake of the family’s reputation.

Richard Eyre‘s oft-revived traditional staging of the Verdi opera is one of the Royal Opera’s most popular productions. It’s broadcast live from Covent Garden on January 30, with encore screenings to follow.
