Greetings Zoners!
This event is probably like no other we post here at Cross Fit Zone!
Our Very Own talented operatic TED has a key roll in this production, and we should all consider attending this one of a kind show.
TOSCA
Overview:
“Puccini’s iconic tale of tyranny and love has electrified audiences since its première in 1900. It has all the ingredients for spectacular opera – lust, jealousy, murder, suicide, an explosive love triangle, breathtaking plot twists, and an emotional steamroller of a score.
Politics, art, and terror collide as the glamorous opera singer Tosca – as beautiful, coquettish, and fiery as any diva must be – fights to save her lover, the idealistic painter Cavaradossi, from that darkest of villains, the sadistic police chief Scarpia, who has offered her a deadly bargain – her love in exchange for Cavaradossi’s life.
Puccini’s glorious melodies, lush orchestral colours, and lyrical, heart-breaking arias ignite the ultimate theatrical experience. A taut melodrama, a shocking political thriller and a passionate love story, Tosca is raw, ravishing, and supremely operatic!”
