Celine Janssen – Opera voor Dummies

  • 12 April 2025
    • 20:15 – 21:30

With this theatre performance, soprano Céline Janssen shows that opera is hip, funny, sexy and moving. Under the motto “There is an opera fan in everyone.” In a cabaret-style setting, she takes you into the world of opera. In the past, opera was intended for the people, but nowadays that no longer seems to be the case. Céline advocates opera as the renewed life song.

Celine Janssen

With her participation in the SBS6 singing program ‘We Want More’ she already showed how opera can also be done. She surprised all the jury members by ‘opera-ing’ the rock song ‘Who Wants To Live Forever’ by Queen. She was unanimously voted through to the semi-finals. In addition to opera, she also sings pop, jazz and even a bit of rock. By mixing different genres and putting popular songs in a completely different jacket, she appeals to a wide audience with opera in this way.

Accessible to everyone and you’ll learn something too!
