Don Giovanni Mozart
Opéra de Montréal

Mozart and Da Ponte’s legendary collaboration gives us Don Giovanni, a maelstrom of tragedy and dark comedy, seduction and self-destruction. The music’s timelessness is on full display, and its full dramatic potency is realized by Stephen Lawless — a name that will perk up the ears and hearts of the Mozart-obsessed. With a cast of rising stars at his disposal, prepare to fall for all their charms.

At the centre of it all is our swaggering heartbreaker, Don Giovanni, flying from conquest to conquest without a flicker of remorse. A brutal killing brings out forces from the great beyond, and unites victims and bystanders in a shared thirst for vengeance. Don Giovanni has made his own bed — but will he escape it?
