The Grand America Hotel

It’s a timeless tale of love, sacrifice, and heartbreak. Verdi’s La traviata takes you deep into the world of Violetta, a glamorous Parisian courtesan who falls for the charming Alfredo. Their passionate romance is tragically challenged by social expectations and personal sacrifice, proving that not all love stories have a happy ending—but they’re unforgettable stories all the same.

With some of Verdi’s most beautiful and iconic music (including the famous “Sempre libera” and “Brindisi”), La traviata has everything opera lovers crave—fiery emotions, gorgeous arias, and a plot that pulls at your heartstrings.

The Sky with all its Stars

Prince Ariodante is set to marry his beloved Ginevra until scheming rivals threaten their joy. Deceptions abound and honor is called into question—will betrayal and shame consume the happy couple, or will truth and love prevail? From aching, heart-rending laments to dazzling displays of vocal virtuosity, Handel’s score traces a journey from devotion to heartbreak and back again.

Ariodante

Ordway Center for the Performing Arts

Enter Sir John Falstaff, whose predilections toward excess lead him into the delusional pursuit of not one, but two married women. Thus ensues a tangled web of plots and counterplots, full of hilarious misunderstandings, as more and more parties are swept into the pandemonium. A cinematic score from an operatic legend imbues this feel-good comedy with warmth and buoyancy.
