Get tickets now!

One of the absolute staples of the bel canto repertoire, L’elisir d’amore is a heartwarming comedy full of charm, gorgeous melodies, and plenty of hijinx.

Nemorino is desperate for Adina to fall in love with him, although she is convinced they would be a terrible match. But when a suspicious Doctor Dulcamara arrives in town, could his “elixir of love” be just the solution Nemorino needs?

This production will be performed in Italian with English supertitles. The run time will be approximately two hours with one 15-minute intermission, making it accessible, engaging, and perfect for both first-time opera-goers and longtime fans.
