Opera at the Reilly: Puccini Love and Laughter!

The University of Florida Opera Theatre and the Ocala Symphony Orchestra present two of Giacomo Puccini’s greatest works. The heartfelt Suor Angelica with its soaring orchestral score is one of his most beautiful musical dramas and reminiscent of the passionate Tosca. The hilarious Gianni Schicchi, his only true comedy, will be sung in a modern English translation with plenty of charming local references. It features one of the world’s most beloved songs, O mio babbino caro. Join these wonderful upcoming opera stars and the talented musicians of the OSO for a matinee of marvelous masterpieces. You don’t want to miss it! Both pieces are one act operas with supertitles and a 2 hour running time.
