Back after 12 years, Opera San Jose builds a new production of Don Giovanni, Mozart’s dark psychological thriller. Seduction, rebellion, and supernatural justice collide in a thrilling look at a notorious libertine’s downfall. The production follows a charismatic anti-hero who pursues pleasure without remorse, leaving a trail of broken hearts and vengeful spirits in a world re-examining the limits of entitlement. Maria Brea returns as the cheated and furious Donna Elvira, with Jonghyun Park as the naive, well-intentioned Don Ottavio. Music Director Joseph Marcheso and stage director Alek Schrader collaborate to bring this visceral inquiry into power and conscience to the heart of Silicon Valley.

Don Giovanni

California Theatre

Tradition meets revolution in Opera San Jose’s new production of Fiddler on the Roof. In a vibrant Jewish shtetl on the eve of upheaval, Tevye, the enduring dairyman, grapples with his daughters’ dreams of love while clinging to the customs that provide his world’s structural integrity. In one of America’s most diverse immigrant hubs, this story of heritage, adaptation, and belonging is deeply personal, a reflection of San Jose’s own balancing act between honoring the past and stepping bravely into the future. OSJ favorite Eugene Brancoveanu makes his role debut as Tevye, joined by Nicole Koh as Tzeitel and Melissa Sondhi as Hodel. Celebrated conductor George Manahan returns to the podium alongside director Crystal Manich to reignite this celebration of joy and human resilience on the California Theatre Stage.
