This revival of our 1997 production of Leoncavallo's only opera to remain in the repertoire. Pagliacci is the realistic story of a clown who must perform while his heart breaks because of his wife's betrayal. The tragedy, as depicted in the opera's "play within a play" has such dramatic impact and the music is so beautiful that it has become one of the all-time favorites of opera lovers everywhere.

As for the PLUS portion of the evening, our audience will be treated to some glorious music from the rich canon of the Verismo period.
