Interval Theatre The Podcast

Leonard Bernstein’s Candide is a supercharged wild ride in which 18th-century France crashes into 20th-century post-war America. Take a seat and strap in tight for a mind-boggling journey as we hurtle through a fantastical world of chaos – from castles in the Alps to skyscrapers in Montevideo, from earthquakes in Lisbon to the Amazonian jungles beyond the Andes. With societies riven by inequality and families displaced by war today, the story remains as relevant now as when it was first written in 1759. Candide is at the Alexandra Theatre on the 12th July 2023.

This week, Dave Massey talks to Gillian Bevan about her experience with this production of Candide by the Welsh National Opera.
