A Passion for Puccini

Myron's at The Smith Center

A beloved holiday classic, Amahl and the Night Visitors is a one-act opera by Gian Carlo Menotti that tells the touching story of a poor shepherd boy and his mother, whose humble lives are forever changed by a miraculous visit from the Three Kings on their way to Bethlehem. Commissioned as the first opera written for television in the United States, it has become a cherished tradition for audiences of all ages.

Get ready for a day full of laughter, surprises, and clever tricks in Mozart’s sparkling and delightful Le nozze di Figaro. Figaro and Susanna, servants in the household of Count Almaviva, are excited to be married—but their plans are threatened when the Count, bored with his own marriage, sets his sights on Susanna. With the help of some smart friends (and a few disguises), Figaro and Susanna set out to outwit the Count and prove that love, loyalty, and honesty can win the day.

Giuseppe Verdi was a noted Italian composer of operas. To say that it is an understatement is itself... an understatement! Verdi produced some of the finest lyric theatre pieces in the history of opera, and this program will offer a "greatest hits" parade of world famous selections from Rigoletto, La Traviata, Il trovatore, Falstaff, and more!

Know Before You Go: No food and beverages will be served during the performance. Food and beverage will be sold pre-show and during intermission only.

Viva Verdi!

Originally set in the charming ambiance of 19th century Spain, we are re-imaging this iconic comedy in current-day Hollywood, where pop princess Rosina is fresh out of rehab after a messy breakup and public meltdown. She’s moved in with her overbearing producer and manager, Dr. Bartolo, who has more than her career on his mind. With the assistance of aging rock legend, turned celebrity voice coach, Don Basilio, Bartolo hopes to marry the young Rosina. However, Hollywood heartthrob Count Almaviva also has his eye on Rosina but wants to win her heart the old-fashioned way, not because of his fame, so he disguises himself as a humble student to approach her. Figaro, a stylist to the stars, and a man-about-town is on the scene to aid with the love connection. A host of personal assistants, housekeepers, out-of-work actors, and even the LAPD show up in this laugh-a-minute comedy.

This production will be sung in Italian with English supertitles and accompanied by a live orchestra featuring members of the Las Vegas Philharmonic. Christopher Bozeka's appearance generously Sponsored by Linda Berry.
