Passion. Politics. Power. Opera Wilmington presents Puccini’s sweeping operatic thriller, Tosca, starring Shannon Kessler Dooley as the tempestuous diva, Floria Tosca, Jonathan Kaufman, as her lover Mario Cavaradossi, and Joshua Conyers, as the corrupt and obsessive Police Chief, Baron Scarpia. Tosca faces the ultimate challenge of her career: submit to Scarpia, or watch her beloved be tortured to death. Updated to Rome in the 1940’s, this production features high-voltage drama, with sumptuous singing, scenery, and costumes, all taking place on one turbulent day. Sung in Italian with English supertitles projected.
Content Note: Puccini’s Tosca contains scenes of violence and sexual aggression.
Performance time is approximately two hours and 45 minutes, including two 20-minute intermissions.
