Don Giovanni (Abridged) is a new adult comedy adaptation of Mozart’s classic opera “Don Giovanni”, the tale of a womanizing nobleman who, after countless exploits, finally meets his doom. Don’t speak Italian? Don’t worry! This show is an entirely new English adaptation written mostly by Gwen Hyland, with a little help from Alissa Roca. Within the span of an hour, Don Giovanni will tell his own story – dirty jokes, crass humor, and all – in an attempt to convince a heavenly judge that he has changed his ways and deserves to be released from Hell. (Note: he hasn’t, and he doesn’t.) You’ll still hear your favorite Mozart tunes interspersed throughout the play with delightful new lyrics (yes, in English!) and sometimes the audience will get to join in the fun too! (Think Dora the Explorer for adults, e.g. “Can you say ‘foreplay’? Veeeery good!”) And how do two singers and a pianist put on an eight-person show by themselves? With puppets! (Because everybody loves puppets.)
Alissa Roca, Soprano — Gwen Hyland, Baritone — Suzanne James, Piano
