About Flight

Fasten your seat belts for Flight, a heartwarming opera full of drama, humour and profound beauty.

Set in an airport terminal over the course of a night, would-be passengers, crew and airport workers are stranded by a storm. Unable to escape the airport and each other, events and revelations unfold leading to life changing moments and realisations.

Centred on a stateless refugee, Flight is based on the true story of a man who was forced to live at Charles de Gaulle Airport for 18 years, trapped and unable to prove his identity, and who inspired the 2004 film The Terminal starring Tom Hanks.

Around the Refugee revolves a collection of characters who are brought to life with a fine balance of comedy and poignancy. Two married couples, one trying to revive the romance and one expecting an arrival of their own, a lovelorn woman and two hot-blooded flight attendants are watched over by the ever-observant Controller and a relentless Immigration Officer.

Composer Jonathan Dove and librettist April de Angelis’s opera for our times comes to life in a compelling and visually stunning production. Australian Director Stephen Barlow makes his long-awaited professional debut on home soil and British Conductor Charlotte Corderoy leads the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra and a world-class cast including counter tenor James Laing, Anna Voshege, Henry Choo, Ashlyn Tymms, Samuel Dale Johnson, Jeremy Tatchell, Fiona McArdle, Cherie Boogaart and featuring Teddy Tahu Rhodes.

Flight returns to Adelaide almost 20 years after its Australian premiere at the Adelaide Festival in 2006, with a powerful production by Scottish Opera and originated at Opera Holland Park, never seen before in the Southern Hemisphere. Prepare to board as Flight takes off for an exclusive 3-show season at Her Majesty’s Theatre.

  • Event Duration: Approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes including one 20-minute interval.

  • Content Warnings: Mild sex scenes, simulation of smoking, simulation of child birth, flashing lights and atmospheric haze effects
