De Vlaamse Opera (The Flemish Opera) will have a special gothic day on the occasion of the premiere of La Forza del Destino (Verdi). The day will have special sceneries bases on stories by Edgar Allan Poe, a singing course by Sigrid Hausen (Qntal / Estampie) & a special live performace with new wave classics & fragments of La Forza.
Wander into the darkest corridors of the Flemish Opera and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of "The Mask of Red Death" (by Edgar Allan Poe).
