Where passion burns, power destroysIn a city gripped by tyranny, three lives are bound by passion, power and deceit. Floria Tosca is a celebrated prima donna caught in a web of lies. Her lover, Mario Cavaradossi, a rebellious artist with a conscience, hides a political fugitive wanted by the city’s ruthless Chief of Police Scarpia - who has his sights on two things: the fugitive - and Tosca herself. As tensions rise, Tosca must navigate a labyrinth of blackmail and betrayal, making an impossible decision between love and survival.
Tosca is a fast-paced operatic thriller and Puccini’s unforgettable score heightens every moment of drama, from the spine-tingling aria Te deum to the raw beauty of Vissi d’arte. This is opera at its most gripping and as the final notes fade, you’ll be left on the edge of your seat wondering just how far you would go for love?

Lle mae angerdd yn gryf, mae pŵer yn dinistrio
Mewn dinas dan ormes llwyr, daw tri bywyd ynghyd drwy angerdd, pŵer a thwyll. Prif gantores boblogaidd yw Floria Tosca, sydd wedi’i dal mewn gwe o gelwyddau. Mae ei chariad, Mario Cavaradossi, artist gwrthryfelgar â chanddo gydwybod, yn cuddio ffoadur sydd â Phennaeth Heddlu didostur y Dinas, Scarpia, yn chwilio amdano, gyda’i fryd ar ddau beth: y ffoadur - a Tosca ei hun. Wrth i densiynau gynyddu, rhaid i Tosca lywio drwy labrinth o lwgrwobrwyo a brad, gan wneud penderfyniadau amhosib rhwng cariad a goroesi.
Opera iasol a chyffrous yw Tosca ac mae cerddoriaeth fythgofiadwy Puccini yn gwneud yn fawr o bob eiliad o ddrama, o’r aria iasol Te deum i harddwch pur Vissi d’arte. Dyma opera ar ei mwyaf gafaelgar ac wrth i'r nodau olaf bylu, byddwch yn ysu i gael mwy ac yn pendroni pa mor bell fyddech chi’n mynd er mwyn cariad?
