Calling all the dark comedy lovers! The Mozart-Da Ponte trilogy concludes in a post-apocalyptic future with Don Giovanni, an opera that masterfully blends dark comedy and even darker deeds - with a twist ending straight out of cult horror flicks like Drag Me to Hell or Night of the Demon.
French Conductor, Bertrand de Billy will conduct Mozart's propulsive score, while Etienne Dupuis, Adela Zaharia, and Nicole Car (who are all making their SF Opera debuts!), and Luca Pisaroni, Cody Quatlebaum, and Amitai Pati (some of our favorite returning performers!) will lead the way to perform a new take on this iconic opera.
Also, you may want to stop by on Friday, June 18, as it will be Pride Night! Walk the rainbow carpet to see Don Giovanni and revel in their Pride Night festivities that include cocktails, dancing, and more!
One Night Only! Eun Sun Kim is the first female musical director of the San Francisco Opera and was named "Classical Music Breakout Star of the Year" in 2021 by the New York Times. She will conduct a concert that recognizes the beginnings of her American journey when she made her U.S. debut with performances of Verdi's Requiem and La Traviata.
This evening will be a must-see and historical night of arias, duets, and orchestral and choral performances. Plus, after the performance, there will be an after-party at the magical Green Room in the Veterans Building (next door to the War Memorial Opera House) to toast and celebrate Eun Sun Kim's inaugural performance! Proceeds from the tickets will go to support her vision for the Future of Opera, which to us, is looking better than ever.
