Maria Stuarda tells the dramatic story of the intense rivalry between Mary, Queen of Scots, and Queen Elizabeth I of England. Set against a backdrop of political intrigue and personal animosity, the opera explores themes of power, jealousy, and tragedy.

Mary Stuart has been imprisoned by her cousin, Elizabeth, who views her as a threat to the English throne. As Mary languishes in captivity, various characters, including the compassionate Talbot and the ambitious Cecil, debate her fate. Elizabeth's favorite, Leicester, also has deep feelings for Mary, complicating the already tense situation.

Maria Stuarda

Garrett Jacobs Mansion

Scandal. Secrets. And a mother’s love wrapped in velvet and venom. Donizetti’s Lucrezia Borgia is a dark and dazzling tale of political ambition, family ties, and deadly betrayal in Renaissance Italy. The infamous Lucrezia—feared as much for her rumored poisonings as for her power—is more than a femme fatale: she’s a woman fighting to protect her greatest secret.

Lucrezia Borgia

Step into a world of shadows and silences with Debussy’s Pelléas et Mélisande—a hauntingly beautiful dream of an opera where nothing is said outright, but everything is felt. When the mysterious Mélisande marries Prince Golaud and quietly falls for his half-brother Pelléas, love blooms in secret under the surface. But in this misty medieval castle, jealousy festers, words are weapons, and desire leads quietly—inevitably—to ruin.
