"Rigoletto" at the 100th Arena di Verona Opera Festival 2023

Info

«Sì, vendetta, tremenda vendetta!» (Yes, vendetta, a terrible vendetta!) The first opera of the so-called “popular trilogy” by Giuseppe VerdiRigoletto will be staged at the Arena from 1 July to 4 July. Four dates to (re)discover an absolute masterpiece of Italian melodrama.

The story of jester Rigoletto (who, on the one hand, maliciously complies with the Duke of Mantua’s whims, and, on the other hand, wants to protect his daughter Gilda, at all costs) intertwines eternal topics, such as passion, betrayal, love, hatred and rivalry, exalted by immortal airs, such as «Caro nome», «Cortigiani, vil razza dannata» and «La donna è mobile».
