Opera Santa Barbara Presents
AIDA
by Giuseppe Verdi
Aida receives its company premiere in this new production, conceived by Francesca Zambello for the Glimmerglass Opera. As war rages between Egypt and Ethiopia, Aida tells the story of a Pharaoh's daughter competing with her own Ethiopian slave for the love of an Egyptian general. This intimate take on Verdi's masterpiece will eschew the pyramids and elephants, turning its focus instead to the personal tragedy that faces this love triangle and the national conflict that dwarfs and dooms two lovers from different worlds. Set to Verdi's most impressive score, this moving tale of love amid war will never have been more heartbreaking.
(Performed in Italian with English translations above the stage.)
