Rigoletto: Gran Teatre del Liceu
About the Event
An extraordinary cast performs in Monique Wagemakers' production of "Rigoletto" at the Gran Teatre del Liceu. Javier Camarena and Antonino Siragusa will debut in the role of the Duke of Mantua, with Carlos Álvarez, Àngel Òdena, and Leo Nucci among the other star singers.
Monique Wagemakers' interpretation of Verdi's opera is minimalistic, yet technically complex. The dramatic red costumes, with echoes of Renaissance Venice, reflect the fierce emotions of the title character.
Practical Information
Please note: In some areas of the Gran Teatre del Liceu it is possible to be seated with a partially obstructed view of the stage. The Gran Teatre del Liceu recommends Category 2 for the finest and completely unobstructed view of the performance. The stage is not visible from seats starting in row 2 of Category 8. A monitor is provided for following the performance in this section. Only available for operas.
