Florida Grand Opera presents Rigoletto by GIUSEPPE VERDI

Mar 28 - May 2, 2020

The grand master of opera, Giuseppe Verdi, ramps up his musical and dramatic intensity in this masterpiece. A jester makes cruel sport of courtiers whose wives and daughters are seduced by the Duke until his own young daughter falls victim. The dishonored jester plots a savage revenge, but he loses everything when he is double-crossed, and his plan goes fatally awry. One of Verdi’s most powerful scores brings this intensely moving drama to life—and death.
