Description:

Joachim Schamberger, director; Andrew Bisantz, conductor; Northwestern University Symphony Orchestra

Expertly blending elements of comedy and tragedy, Mozart’s classic opera follows the adventures of the notorious libertine Don Giovanni, against the backdrop of present-day New York. As the list of Giovanni’s romantic conquests—and revenge-seeking enemies—continues to grow, the rogue laughs off every accusation hurled his way. But will he be able to outrun his fate? Mozart’s story explores the very timely themes of power and consent, with social media as a vehicle for Giovanni’s escapades. Performed in Italian with English supertitles.
