Description:Initially a failure when first performed in London in 1750, 'Theodora' has proved to be one of Handel's most enduring and compassionate masterpieces - a work of introspective depth about the redemptive power of tolerance. Theodora's determination to die in defence of her religious freedom offers her the promise of eternal salvation. In this acclaimed Viennese production, award-winning stage director Stefan Herheim contrasts Theodora's self-sacrifice with the lack of spiritual direction of our own times. La Folia Barockorchester and the Arnold Schoenberg Chor are conducted by the acclaimed countertenor and Handel specialist Bejun Mehta.

Mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato contributes her Grammy-winning artistry to this stellar cast. The production is directed by Christof Loy, renowned for his innovative stagings across Europe including award-winning productions at Salzburg Festival and Covent Garden.
