Verdi’s Rigoletto at Zabeel Theatre in Dubai Experience Verdi’s Rigoletto in a bold staging by the celebrated Russian director Yuri Alexandrov, founder of the State Theatre St. Petersburg Opera.
After their celebrated appearance at Expo 2020, the company returns with one of opera’s greatest works, reimagined with striking originality. Alexandrov’s Rigoletto transforms the jester from the familiar hunchback into a sharp, cunning figure whose torment lies hidden behind his courtly disguise - a haunting portrayal of cruelty, corruption, and vulnerability.


Founded in 1987, the St. Petersburg Opera has become one of Russia’s leading companies, admired across Europe for its richly costumed productions and exceptional singers. Under Alexandrov, who has staged works at La Scala, the Metropolitan Opera, Arena di Verona, and the Mariinsky Theatre, the theatre has developed a reputation for daring artistry that challenges convention while remaining faithful to Verdi’s dramatic power.


Rigoletto remains one of Verdi’s most enduring masterpieces: a story of love, betrayal, and revenge told through some of the most celebrated music in the operatic repertoire. See it brought to life in a lavish, costumed spectacle, representing one of the finest examples of world opera and  St. Petersburg Opera's signature production.
