Poppea
Music by Claudio Monteverdi;
Libretto by Giovanni Francesco Busenello
Madeline Sayet, director
Love and obsession. Deception and decadence. And an unrelenting quest for power, whatever the cost. Imagine if today all roads led to Rome, where the goddesses of Virtue, Wealth, and Love fight for power. Seductively rich imagery coupled with Monteverdi's ravishing score lure the audience into this glamorous world of greed, lust, betrayal, and beauty.
This performance includes a 20-minute intermission.
