Peter Grimes on the Beach

Fisherman Peter Grimes is an outsider in the community of misfits and eccentrics who populate the Borough, a fictionalised version of the village of Aldeburgh in Suffolk. Is Grimes responsible for the death of his young apprentice? Is he mad, evil or a misunderstood visionary? This open-air staging by Aldeburgh Music takes place on the beach that inspired Benjamin Britten's opera.
