Opera Southwest's 38th season is all about love with very different outcomes.  We begin the season with The Italian Girl in Algiers, a delightful comic gem by Gioachino Rossini, the same composer of last season's La Cenerentola.  A bored dignitary decides to trade in his wife for the beautiful survivor of a shipwreck, an "Italian girl," the results of which define the phrase "be careful what you wish for!"

Then our spring production of Verdi's La Traviata tells the quintessential story of passionate young love, separation, and reconciliation in the eternal city of love, Paris.  Get your season tickets early and don't miss out on these stunning productions!
