Rigoletto
Royal Opera House, Main Stage, WC2E 9DD , [Venue Details]Verdi’s most famous opera returns, with Oliver Mears’ darkly elegant production. Acclaimed Verdi specialist Mark Elder conducts.
The Duke of Mantua is a serial womaniser. At a palace party, not content with the married Countess Ceprano, the Duke reveals he is also infatuated with a mysterious woman he has seen in church. The hunchbacked jester Rigoletto jokes that the Duke should have the Countess’s husband murdered. Count Ceprano vows to kidnap Rigoletto’s lover as punishment. Chaos descends when the elderly Count Monterone arrives and confronts the Duke for seducing his daughter: a third conquest. Rigoletto takes his jesting too far, and the old man curses him and his fellow courtiers.
