Opera Holland Park, a lovely part of the summer in Notting Hill, has another stellar lineup for its 2013 season.  I’ve done the conventional and booked tickets for Madama Butterfly and am considering the double bill of Cavalleria Rusticana and Pagliacci.

Priority Booking opens to Friends today.   Friends can join with a suggested minimum donation of £45 which in addition to advanced booking, will enable you to attend various Friends events throughout the year.
