Rossini's Cinderella

Janet Quinney Lawson Capitol Theatre

A centuries-old legend immortalized by the genius of Mozart, Don Giovanni is a rapturous experience for both the opera-curious and the connoisseur.

What’s an arrogant and licentious nobleman (the titular Don Giovanni) to do when he encounters something he can’t abuse, seduce, or outwit? From comedic highs to thrilling melodrama to shocking supernatural suspense, there’s something for everyone in this exhilarating tale—propelled by some of Mozart’s best-loved and most recognizable arias.
