Douglas Boyd, Artistic Director Garsington Opera said: We are thrilled that through BBC Arts Online so many people both nationally and internationally, will have the opportunity to hear and see this wonderful work for free.  We are very proud of our production and are delighted that it now has a longer life.

As part of the Garsington Opera for All programme Eugene Onegin will be screened to Ramsgate (23 July), Bridgewater (20 August) and Grimsby (30 September). In each location a large-scale programme of education and outreach work is firmly integrated with the digital free public screenings and provides ground breaking opportunities for communities to be involved in creating, learning about, and performing opera.
