An operatic double bill: experience this unique combination of tragedy and comedy. Puccini's Suor Angelica and Gianni Schicchi take you from a heart wrenching tale of piety, passion, and penance to a satirical farce and one of the funniest operas you'll ever experience. Gianni Schicchi is highlighted by one of opera's most beloved arias, "O mio babbino caro." Together, these two operas will delight and entertain audiences of all ages.
For physical events that happen at a specific time. For example a concert, or dance performance. If there are multiple shows, you can still duplicate your event to cover them all.
