La Sonnambula (The Sleepwalker) is an opera with a story briefly told: Amina is engaged to Elvino, but one night she is discovered in the bedroom of another man, and Elvino breaks off the marriage plans. It is then revealed that Amina is a sleepwalker, and had wandered into the forbidden bedroom on one of her nocturnal walks. The marriage plans are then restored, and they live happily ever after.
That’s it.
Straight forward story with some spectacular singing. Absolutely fab.
