Boston Summer Opera presents The Elixir of Love by Gaetano Donizetti this June!


One of the absolute staples of the bel canto repertoire, L’elisir d’amore is a heartwarming comedy full of charm, gorgeous melodies, and plenty of hijinx.

Nemorino is desperate for Adina to fall in love with him, although she is convinced they would be a terrible match. But when a suspicious Doctor Dulcamara arrives in town, could his “elixir of love” be just the solution Nemorino needs?


This production will be performed in Italian with English supertitles. The run time will be approximately two hours with one 15-minute intermission, making it accessible, engaging, and perfect for both first-time opera-goers and longtime fans.

Boston Summer Opera is joyfully building a summertime operatic hub for musicians and audiences alike, filling a unique space in the Commonwealth’s musical landscape. We are committed to producing high-quality performances that uplift local emerging artists while making opera accessible, engaging, and community-centered. Our mission is to celebrate Boston’s flourishing musical community, foster deep engagement with diverse audiences, and ensure that opera can be enjoyed by everyone in the city year-round—barrier-free.

All Boston Summer Opera performers are young artists based in the greater Boston area.
