Celebrated for their spectacular opera productions, the Theatre is known for bringing epic stories to life with powerful vocals, lavish sets, and full orchestras. Their scale, precision, and passion make each performance a sweeping theatrical experience that commands the stage.
Between life and love, honor and exile, deception and devotion–which choices would you make? Aida confronts us with these dilemmas over and over, as the slave girl protagonist attempts to save her lover, her father, herself and her country in the face of overwhelming odds. The glory of battle, the glitter of palaces, the agony of a love triangle and the eternal heartstring-tug of a father daughter relationship. Against the backdrop of ancient Egypt, Verdi’s iconic opera dazzles with 200 artists featuring stunning vocals, elaborate costumes and gorgeous stage designs.
