Two powerful operas. One unforgettable experience.
Experience the emotional spectrum of Puccini with this stunning double bill at the Belk Theater.
"Suor Angelica" — a poignant tale of love, loss, and spiritual redemption. Set within the quiet walls of a convent, this deeply moving one-act opera follows a young woman whose heartbreak leads to a transcendent moment of grace.
"Gianni Schicchi" — a clever, fast-paced comedy of greed and deception. When a wealthy man dies, his family scrambles to rewrite the will—but they didn’t count on the trickery of the wily Gianni Schicchi. Featuring the beloved aria “O mio babbino caro,” this opera is a delightful contrast to the drama that precedes it.
Together, these works showcase Puccini’s genius—blending soaring emotion with sharp humor in a night that will stay with you long after the final curtain.
