Event info

Acts I and II of Puccini’s Il Trittico. Il Tabarro (The Cloak), a dark drama set on the banks of the Seine, is Puccini at his most verismo. This tale of love, loss, adultery and murder — coupled with some of Puccini’s most stunning vocal writing — is not to be missed. Suor Angelica tells the story of a young noblewoman forced to enter the convent after a youthful indiscretion that led to the birth of an illegitimate child. Tragedy, death and redemption on the landscape of Puccini’s lush orchestration.
