Opera Mariposa — Gianni Schicchi

Canada’s only disability-led opera company Presents: Gianni Schicchi

When Buoso Donati dies, his relatives embark on a frantic search for his last will and testament, determined to get their hands on his fortune at any cost. Enter Gianni Schicchi, the clever rogue who knows how to solve any problem…but possibly not in the way that this greedy family expects. The opera will be brought to life by a multi-award-winning international cast and presented alongside a performance of Italian songs and scenes, so you won’t want to miss this tribute to Italian opera at its peak!
