Qype Competition: Win Two Tickets to Glyndebourne at Somerset House
My mum lives near Glyndebourne, but not in the posh bit. It’s rather nice. Luckily, time travel is now with us (kind of) and rather than y’all needing to schlep down there, our cultured friends at Somerset House are participating in “the first-ever simultaneous nationwide celebration of Glyndebourne Opera“ and on the weekend of 20-22nd August bringing the operatic joys of the Billy Budd, Hansel and Gretel and The Rake’s Progress productions to their massive, high-definition screen.
All set “in the spectacular setting of the Courtyard at Somerset House“, you can dress up or dress down and stuff yourself to within an inch of your own opera-sized figure as you devour a Fortnum & Mason’s Hamper.
We have a pair of tickets to give away to Saturday’s night performance of The Rake’s Progress (pictured above), you’ll need to shell out for the hamper though! To enter simply: -
1. Email us with the subject line: “Come and have a Figaro if you think you’re hard enough”
2. Tweet us with the phrase: “Yo @qypedoeslondon can you lend me a tenor?”
Competition closes Friday 20th August, 8.00am. That’s when the fat lady sings….
