Jonathan Dove's hugely successful modern masterpiece, Flight, first performed in 1998, receives its first London performance by British Youth Opera. Set in a busy airport and inspired by a true story, the opera presents a group of people whose lives happen to intersect on one particular day. Their interactions and relationships are illuminated b Dove's pulsating and thrillingly coloured score.
