Mozart’s masterpiece tells the story of a handsome playboy, Don Giovanni, as he blazes a path to his own destruction in a single day. He’s loved by women as much as he loves them, but his disregard for decency catches up with him. In the end, supernatural forces exact the final punishment and, for the first time, the Don cannot outwit fate.
