About Jenufa

Jenufa, an opera in three acts by Leoš Janáček Jenufa to a Czech libretto by the composer, is based on the play Její pastorkyňa by Gabriela Preissová. Composed between 1896 and 1902, it is among the first operas written in prose. The Jenufa opera was first performed at the National Theatre Brno on 21 January 1904 and has since been produced around the world. The story of Jenufa revolves around a young woman who faces social ostracism after becoming pregnant out of wedlock. Despite her difficult circumstances, she finds strength in her faith and courage to fight for her future. Her plight becomes even more complicated when her stepmother intervenes with tragic consequences. This powerful story has resonated with audiences worldwide for over a century and continues to captivate new generations of listeners. 

In recent years, Jenufa has been staged at some of the most prestigious venues across Europe and North America including Jenufa Royal Opera House, Berlin’s Deutsche Oper Berlin, New York City’s Metropolitan Opera House, and Los Angeles' Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. The production has also garnered numerous awards such as Best Opera Production at the International Opera Awards (2014) and Outstanding Achievement in Music at the Laurence Olivier Awards (2015). 2023 will see several performances of Jenufa taking place around the world including two dates in London as part of the Barbican Centre's International Festival season; a performance at Covent Garden; a performance at Edinburgh's Usher Hall; a performance at Manchester's Bridgewater Hall; and two dates in Vienna. Each performance will feature some of today's leading artists such as soprano Eva Urbanová, tenor Pavol Breslik, bass-baritone Peter Hoare and conductor Mark Elder.
