Experience the magic of Puccini's iconic opera Turandot through this stunning live performance from the Verona Arena. Follow the gripping story of love and sacrifice set in ancient China, as Turandot's suitors face the challenge of answering riddles to win her hand or risk losing their heads. Featuring breathtaking music and captivating performances, this opera showcases the grandeur and emotion of one of Puccini's masterpieces.

When a sharp-tongued court jester Rigoletto is cursed for his spiteful words, he is forced to hide his unworldly daughter Gilda from his own licentious master the Duke. For Verdi’s wonderful ambivalent hunchback, paradise is the peaceful home and family that he struggles to protect. Opéra Orchestre national Montpellier Occitanie’s production of Verdi’s opera confronts the two faces of Rigoletto: that of the loving father-monster who locks up his daughter from the very first scene, and his alter ego, the modern-day buffoon. While the latter, like a comedian alone on stage, sneers at power and the elite, the former reveals his darkest fears and persecution complex.
