Composed by Gaetano Donizetti
Directed by Dr. Jon Truitt & Cara Chowning
Gaetano Donizetti’s The Elixir of Love is a charming romantic comedy set in a rustic Spanish village, where shy peasant Nemorino longs for the heart of the confident and clever Adina. Convinced that a magical potion will win her love, he buys a phony elixir from a traveling quack—only to find himself tangled in a web of rival suitors, misunderstandings, and unexpected fortune. With its delightful melodies, including the famous aria “Una furtiva lagrima,” this opera bubbles with humor, heart, and the magic of true love. Perfect for newcomers and aficionados alike, The Elixir of Love is a timeless tale of hope, charm, and serendipity.
This is the first of two performances. The second performance is at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 23.
