| | Don Giovanni
April 23, 25 & 26, 2020
Mozart’s masterpiece wonderfully blends the serious, even the frightening, with the humorous. The story centers on the eponymous aristocrat whose obsession in life is bedding as many women as possible by whatever means necessary, whether persuasion or force.
As always, Mozart is fascinated by human relationships, and though much has been made of the tension between the Don and his servant Leporello, Mozart sees class not as determinative of human interaction but as a lens through which the nature of man can be better understood. | Buy tickets |
| | Candide
October 15, 17 & 18, 2020
Leonard Bertnstein’s fantastic operetta
explodes with star-crossed lovers,
melodramatic villains, broad comedy, and a
beautiful score. Candide combines the power
of opera with the delights of music theatre.
Wrapped in irony, this masterpiece follows the optimistic young Candide on an extraordinary journey to reunite with his soulmate. An all-star cast joins the Wichita Grand Opera Orchestra and Chorus, truly "The best of all possible worlds"! | Buy tickets |
