Music / Pietro Mascagni
Libretto / Giovanni Targioni-Tozzetti and Guido Menasci
Love, Honor, and a Bloody Sicilian Easter
This is red-sauce opera at its finest: passionate, visceral, and over before you know it, making it the perfect introduction for a first-time operagoer. Bring someone who is sure they don’t like opera. Former OSW Apprentice Artist Max Potter returns as Santuzza, and Jeremy Brauner makes his OSW debut as Turiddu.
