Don Giovanni | Adelaide

May 4, 2019 @ 7:30 PM - 10:30 PM ACST

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s DON GIOVANNI
Director: Nicholas Cannon
Conductor: Josh van Konkelenberg
Set at a sumptuous Florentine wedding, Mozart’s powerful setting of Don Giovanni is the story of the crimes and seductions of the wealthy Don, and the havoc he wreaks on the people
around him. As his crimes and machinations slowly come to light, the characters begin to
plot and act out their revenge. With some of the greatest operatic tunes and most exciting
ensembles, this opera tells its dark tale with generous lashings of satire and comedy.
The story follows his unrepentant journey from murder to his damnation in hell. Meanwhile,
a web of desire and lust weaves its way around the chaos that the Don leaves in his wake:
Donna Anna wants vengeance, Ottavio wants Anna, Elvira wants the Don, and the Don
wants everything.
It’s a tale that warns us about getting just what we want.
