Don Giovani Opera – Educational Zoom
April 18 @ 12:30 pm – 1:30 pm
Don’t miss a chance to practice your Italian with live opera! We are working with ARIZONA OPERA and bringing you an exclusive Zoom Live Presentation, where you will be able to learn about one of the most famous Mozart plays – Don Giovanni. As a bonus, you will receive a coupon for 20% OFF for your Opera Tickets.
About the play:
Mozart’s Don Giovanni, regarded by many as one of the greatest operas of all time, tells the centuries-old story of the libertine Don Juan.
Don Giovanni tries to seduce Donna Anna, which goes awry and he ends up killing her father, the Commendatore, unbeknownst to her. Donna Anna asks her fiancé, Don Ottavio, to avenge her father’s death. The opera follows Don Giovanni’s salacious escapades, aided and abetted by his servant Leporello. Giovanni makes his rounds seducing and duping numerous characters, bragging along the way and escaping accountability by obscuring his identity. In a cemetery, Giovanni meets the Commendatore’s statue, who forebodingly warns him that he will laugh no longer. When offered the chance to change his ways, will Don Giovanni repent?
Performed in Italian with English and Spanish supertitles
