Florida Grand Opera presents Rigoletto
by Giuseppe Verdi

One of the most exciting and gritty operas, Giuseppe Verdi’s Rigoletto is a timeless story of betrayal, dashed dreams and mistaken identity, worthy of the best cinematic thriller. Rigoletto is not for the fainthearted. The censors of the time had real issues with Rigoletto’s content, and it is not hard to see why!

Set in the grubby world of the Duke of Mantua, a man with few morals and a great deal of power, the action faces the depths of nastiness, and the bad guy doesn't get punished. There is no avoiding the opera’s grim finale, which is horrifically sad with limited redemption.
