A fully-staged production of Puccini's masterpiece Tosca, with orchestra, chorus and elaborate sets and costumes. In order to save her lover's life, Floria Tosca agrees to sleep with Scarpia, Rome's corrupt Chief of Police, after he promises her to stage a mock public execution and later release her lover in secret so that the two can flee abroad. Instead of yielding to him, she stabs Scarpia in the chest, killing him. But Scarpia has double crossed her: her lover is actually executed at the Castel Sant'Angelo prison while she watches from afar. Pursued by guards for murdering Scarpia, she jumps to her death from the Castle's tower. One of Puccini's three most famous works, Tosca packs a dramatic force and a level of suspense unsurpassed in the verismo repertoire.
