Relatives of the newly-deceased (and very wealthy) Buoso Donati gather to bid farewell to their dear family member – and to learn what they each inherited. When they discover that Buoso’s will doesn’t read exactly as they hoped, the family enlists the help of the morally flexible Gianni Schicchi to help them re-write the will.

Thank you for joining On Site Opera in the sumptuous Prince George Ballroom for Puccini’s comedy of deception, greed, and doublecrossing that will surely made you appreciate your own family a little more!

This production marked the beginning of On Site Opera’s complete staging of Puccini’s Il Trittico over the next several seasons.

Gianni Schicchi

Prince George Ballroom

Mozart’s sparkling comedy about love, loyalty, and deception takes on new life in an American college setting. Featuring an updated libretto in English by Kelley Rourke, this fresh adaptation directed by Eric Einhorn and conducted by Joseph Colaneri puts human nature to the test in an experiment that soon spins out of control — what happens when the game goes too far? With sharp humor and surprising twists, Così brings a contemporary edge to Mozart’s classic “school for lovers,” asking what women — and men — are really like.
