SUMMARY:University Opera presents: Our Town
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets\nGeneral Public: $32\nSenior: $27\nStudent (UW–Madison and all other): $10 \nFriday\, March 20\, 7:30 pm\nSaturday\, March 21\, 7:30 pm\nSunday\, March 22\, 2 pm\nTuesday\, March 24\, 7:30 pm \nNed Rorem beautifully captures the atmosphere of Grover’s Corners\, New Hampshire at the turn of the 20th century in his operatic treatment of Thornton Wilder’s seminal play. His harmonic language juxtaposes an open feeling of Americana with dissonance\, an apt setting for this tale. The Stage Manager character narrates the familiar story following young George Gibbs and Emily Webb and their parents as they fall in love and get married. And the last act’s poignant denouement occurs in the same way as it does in the play\, as the dead remind us that life is short and we need to cherish it. \n

SUMMARY:University Opera - Le nozze di Figaro
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets\nGeneral Public: $32\nSeniors: $27\nUW–Madison Students: $10 \nLe nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro)\nMusic by W. A. Mozart\nLibretto by Lorenzo da Ponte \nDavid Ronis\, Director\nOriol Sans\, Conductor \nFriday\, November 21\, 7:30 pm\nSaturday\, November 22\, 7:30 pm\nSunday\, November 23\, 2 pm\nTuesday\, November 25\, 7:30 pm \nLe nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro) is not only one of Mozart’s most famous masterpieces\, but it is arguably one of the great works of western culture. With a sublime score\, hilarious comedy\, and deeply human characterizations\, it never fails to please. Based on Pierre Beaumarchais’ paradigm-changing play\, Figaro features realistic portraits of 18th century aristocrats and servants and mirrors the burgeoning revolutionary spirit in France in the 1780s. But it’s the story and the score that really hook us. \nCount Almaviva wants to revive the “droit du Seigneur\,” the right of a lord to bed a servant’s bride on her wedding night and Susanna\, his wife’s maid and confidant\, is his current target. Figaro and Susanna\, along with the Countess\, devise a plan to thwart the Count’s advances and expose his inappropriate behavior. Add Mozart’s score\, a group of colorful supporting characters\, plus additional plot twists and turns into the mix and you have the ingredients for a wonderful\, enlightening\, and moving theatrical experience.
