Based on Henry James’s chilling novella, Britten’s The Turn of the Screw tells the story of a governess, desperate to protect her children from evil as they experience strange encounters at a remote country house. Toronto indie company Opera 5 brings together an exceptional team of Canadian artists to dig into Britten’s creepy psychological thriller. The concept will have a signature Opera 5 twist, with a fresh take on this spooky Britten classic.
