Read more about the opera Catiline Conspiracy

An excellent revival at the Theatre Royal of Iain Hamilton’s thoroughly stageworthy historical drama, with many of the original starry line-up of singers returning, and even the newcomers including Donald Maxwell and Marie Slorach in small roles. John Robertson, Cethegus in the first run, stepped up to succeed Alexander Young in an excellent performance as Cicero.
