| Description |
Acclaimed by many as the perfect opera, Don Giovanni is a seamless blend of sublime music and stunning action - the immortal story of Don Juan and his endless pursuit of sexual fulfilment. Uninhibited by the laws of society, the fascinating Don Giovanni sweeps all before him on a mounting tide of passion and violence, culminating in horrifying retribution as the opera hurtles toward its dramatic end |
