Description
One of the most dramatic, thrilling operas ever written, Giacomo Puccini's Tosca is set amidst stunning churches and pictorial palazzos in Rome during the Napoleonic era. Its heroine, Floria Tosca, a famous opera star and legendary beauty, finds her happy life shattered and is forced to resort to violent measures to rescue her lover who has been trapped in the web of the licentious Scarpia, the Chief of Police, who also desires her. Puccini's sensuous melodies and astounding conclusion atop the Castelleo San Angelo will leave you breathless.
Purchase tickets online or by calling 214-443-1000.
