Rigoletto

By Guiseppe Verdi
June 18, 19, 20, 2010
Sung in Italian with English surtitles

Libretto by Francesco Maria Piave

Rigoletto, Giuseppe Verdi's tragic classic is the story of the cursed court jester whose obsession to revenge his violated daughter's honor turns viciously against him. Its familiar music includes the arias "Caro nome" and "La donna e mobile." Incensed by the rapacious Duke of Mantua's seduction of his beloved daughter Gilda, Rigoletto plots the duke's assassination. But Gilda, hopelessly in love, sacrifices herself to save the duke. The curtain falls as Rigoletto in a horrifying mistake causes Gilda's death and in despair embraces his dying daughter. Sung in Italian with English surtitles.
