ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE

Follow Ferrando and Guglielmo as they navigate the faithfulness of their lovers in Mozart’s Così fan tutte! After being persuaded by their cynical friend Don Alfonso, the two decide to test the fidelity of their fiancées, the sisters Fiordiligi and Dorabella, which leads to a series of hilarious and heartfelt situations. Equal parts tender and cynical, Mozart’s Così fan tutte is an exploration of the conflict between love and reason captured in an opera filled with comedy, drama and irony. Written only two years before his death, Mozart’s final contribution to the Italian opera buffa genre, with its quick wit and captivating melodies, moves effortlessly between high farce and profound beauty while providing audiences a deeper understanding of human fallibility.
