Don Giovanni: So hot, he’ll burn.
Join us for a performance of this classic opera! Generously discounted tickets available. Join us for lunch at Herbie's on the Park or attend Opera Insights before the performance. Sign up by Friday, May 19.
Don Giovanni is an egotistical and infamous womanizer, brazen in his shameless seductions. But his betrayals soon catch up to him when divine retribution exacts the ultimate price. Mozart’s sharp and otherworldly opera seamlessly blends dark comedy with biting social commentary, all set to some of opera’s most stirring music.
Sung in Italian with English translations projected above the stage. This event is co-sponsored by the Harvard and Yale clubs.
