How long will the performance be?

Approximately two and a half hours long, including the 20-30 minute intermission.

Is there a livestream?

There is no livestream. While we will be professionally recording the performance, the beautiful acoustic will be best enjoyed live!

Will this be in Italian or English?

The performance will be sung in Italian. There will be English subtitles, so you can read along the entire time. There will also be a synopsis in the program to help guide you.

What does a "concert performance" of an opera mean?

The opera will be performed without a set, costumes, or big, theatrical staging. Concert performances highlight the beauty of the music and skill of the musicians! That said, the singers will still be acting & doing some light stage action, and there will be subtitles- you will be very entertained!
