A conversation with Roddy Doyle:Translating Don Giovanni

Event organised in partnership with the UCD Foundation for Italian Studies.

Opera Theatre Company, as part of its 30th anniversary celebrations in 2016, has commissioned Roddy Doyle to create a brand new translation of Mozart and Da Ponte’s opera Don Giovanni. Set in Dublin, the opera will be performed at the Gaiety Theatre as part of the Dublin Theatre Festival at the end of September and at Cork Opera House in early October. Join us at the IIC to hear Roddy Doyle’s experience of translating this iconic opera, his views on literature and much more. The event will be moderated by Selena Daly, Lecturer in Italian Studies at University College Dublin.
