Raylynmor's production of Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro will examine the peril of privilege and power through the prescient libretto of Lorenzo da Ponte and the original work of playwright Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais. While the original production is set in Seville, ours will be a more neutral setting, a stylized suburban America - something that should more closely resonate with the audience watching it in 2026. Raylynmor's production will explore themes of change, tracing the stagnating marriage between Count and Countess Almaviva from its lowest point to its satisfying moment of redemption at the end of the opera.

In this gripping rendition of Bizet’s iconic opera, set against the backdrop of Franco’s Spain in 1937, Carmen emerges not only as a femme fatale but also as a courageous freedom fighter, defying authority at every turn. Carmen’s fiery spirit captivates audiences and reminds us of the consequences of passion unchecked. With its timeless themes of love and betrayal, Carmen remains an electrifying masterpiece.

They’re starving for everything but love. Rodolfo loves Mimi, Marco loves Musetta, Colline loves philosophy, Schaunard loves music, and they all love their eccentric Bohemian life in the garrets of Paris’ 19th century Latin Quarter. Starving artists all, this crazy cadre of young friends bear their poverty with laughter and grace, until it devastates them with unspeakable tragedy.  With beloved favorites like “Che gelida manina,” “Quando m’en vo, ”and “Donde lieta uscire,” Puccini’s divinely romantic score memorably illustrates the joys, struggles, loves, quarrels, triumphs, and tragedies of six  friends and lovers as they embody the true vie de bohème.

The hottest party girl in town is hiding a terrible secret. Violetta Valéry is the most sought-after courtesan in Paris. Only the ardent Alfredo sees through her mask of gaiety to the real woman and her well-disguised suffering. But the love that could save her life is threatened by the demands of Alfredo’s furious father Germont, who insists on a devastating sacrifice to save his own family from disgrace and ruin. Even a heart of gold can shatter under such a strain. From the defiant coloratura flights of “Sempre libera” to the sobbing violins of “Addio del passato,” Alexander Dumas, fils’ semi-autobiographical story and Giuseppe Verdi’s timeless score will alternately lift your spirits and break your heart.
