Il trovatore

Music by Giuseppe Verdi, Libretto by Salvadore Cammarano

(March 7 - 29, 2026)

Serenades, sieges, and family secrets in 15th century Spain.

One of Verdi's most popular works, Il trovatore unfolds with the telling of a fiery execution that takes place during Count de Luna's childhood, an event that sets him in vengeful pursuit of the gypsy woman, Azucena. Unrequited love for the noblewoman Leonora and hatred for her lover, the troubadour Manrico, drive him to murderous passions. The story comes full circle, ending with another tragic execution, in this sprawling medieval melodrama.
