About this Event
TOSCA by Giacomo Puccini
Transported to the tightening grip of 1930s Italy, this production transforms the classic tragedy into a gripping political thriller. By shifting the setting to the Mussolini era, the opera’s themes of surveillance, sacrifice, and survival under a tightening regime become chillingly immediate.
Under the baton of Catherine O'Shaughnessy and directed by Alexey Efremov, Tosca is brought into sharp focus. Performed at the historic Nichols Concert Hall, this "close-up" experience ensures that every soaring melody and every whisper of betrayal resonates with visceral intensity.
