The Magic Flute

The Santa Fe Opera

Inspired by William Hogarth’s famous series of paintings, Stravinsky’s The Rake’s Progress charts one man’s path from pleasure to ruin. When the mysterious Nick Shadow appears, Tom Rakewell abandons his sweetheart, Anne Trulove, and leaves behind his country life for the temptations of the city. But London’s glittering promise soon dissolves as love, money and sanity slip farther and farther from his grasp. Can true love save him, or will the devil get the last laugh.

The Rake's Progress

Simpson College

Floria Tosca suspects her lover of being unfaithful when really, he’s helping an escaped political prisoner and friend. This misunderstanding mutates into a series of escalating and irreversible misfortunes once Baron Scarpia, the chief of the secret police, enters the scene. Set in Rome during a time of national upheaval, as Napoleon’s army marches on Italy, Puccini’s epic opera stands as one of the most enduring and beloved of all time. Whatever darkness or desires Scarpia may bring, there is nothing Tosca will not do for art and love.

Citizens Bank Opera House

A bold and passionate opera singer, Tosca fights to save the life of her beloved even if it means sacrificing herself—or whoever gets in her way. This grand production of power, desperation, and betrayal is brought to life by The Dallas Opera Orchestra and Chorus, featuring some of the most electrifying voices in opera today. The music is just as beautiful and the tragedy as heartbreaking as the day it premiered. Come see what makes Tosca an enthralling masterpiece that keeps opera lovers coming back.

AT&T Performing Arts Center

A plotless divertissement, the ballet features archetypal characters such as Snow, Frost, the Faun and the Rose. Alexander Glazunov composed the music for The Seasons for Marius Petipa to use in his original 1900 ballet—one of the last productions Petipa choreographed prior to his retirement. This new version features original choreography by Alexei Ratmansky, who has chosen to retain almost all of the original character names, though the monikers are designed to serve more as abstract ideas than literal representations.

The Seasons

Lincoln Center

After the death of his beloved Eurydice, Orpheus vows to plunge into the very depths of the Underworld itself to bring her back. Moved by Orpheus’s passion, Amore (Cupid) appears and agrees to aid him in the rescue of his wife so long as he does not look at her until they return to the land of the living again.

Orpheus & Eurydice

Pittsburgh Cultural Trust

Picture it: The fateful premiere of a very serious opera. A colorful cast of very unserious comedians. An unlikely set of circumstances that lands them both on stage… at the same time. What could possibly go wrong?

At Lyric Opera of Chicago, John Cox’s acclaimed production of this brilliantly self-referential opera-within-an-opera offers a peek behind the curtain at the kaleidoscope of personalities that turn mere stagecraft into high (or low!) art.

Ariadne auf Naxos is playful in conceit, but the music is no joke — Richard Strauss’s score is packed with high-octane vocalism and unexpected dramatic twists that promise to dazzle and delight at every turn.
