Curtis Opera Theatre: Ariodante

Curtis Opera Theatre’s 22/23 season concludes with Handel’s riveting tale of dark obsession, desire, and royal intrigue set in the medieval Scottish Highlands. Based upon Ludovico Ariosto’s epic sixteenth-century poem Orlando furioso, this glorious Baroque masterpiece follows the story of Princess Ginevra, daughter of the King of Scotland, and her fiancé, the noble knight Ariodante. Their blissful wedding plans are thwarted, as false accusations of infidelity are spun by the scheming Duke Polinesso. True love is ultimately vindicated in this compelling 18th-century opera seria.
