The author of 65 operas, Donizetti was no slacker, and Lucia di Lammermoor, L’elisir d’amore and Don Pasquale still hold sway in theaters around the world. Straz Center’s Opera Tampa offers a fresh take on Pasquale, a masterpiece that represents the golden tradition of opera. But don’t expect the usual setting in Rome − the action of this creative new production takes place in our own Ybor City, so it’s sure to generate local excitement.

Don Pasquale

Straz Center for the Performing Arts

West Side Story may be Leonard Bernstein’s best-known work, but the overture to Candide is the composer personified in every note. It crystallizes the action of what follows − the seldom-performed comic operetta − a rare gem that launches our 2025 season.
