Rossini's Il Conte Ory
Ticket includes refreshments, desserts, and an opportunity to meet the cast at the post-show reception!
Join us for an unforgettable evening of gorgeous music, bel canto singing, disguises, hijinks and hilarity as Pico Opera presents Rossini's classic comedic opera, Il Conte Ory (also performed as Le Comte Ory). This intimate, fully staged production will be performed in Italian with English titles, accompanied by our one-man orchestra, Pianist Andrew Wang. All seats will be within 10 rows of the stage on stadium seating, ensuring a fully immersive and truly unique opera experience. Don't miss out on this opportunity to experience the magic of opera up close and personal!
Synopsis: The illustrious Count Ory is at it again, with no disguise too ridiculous and no plot too audacious in his quest to seduce the women of Touraine while the townsmen are away at war.
A Rossini masterpiece, this high-flying opera is thrillingly fast-paced musically and dramatically. More commonly performed in French as Le Comte Ory, the gender-bending, bawdy humor of Il Conte Ory was considered too racy to be performed in Rossini’s native Italy in 1828. Pico Opera brings Il Conte Ory to the stage in Cambridge for an unforgettable evening of big laughs, big arias, and big ensembles. Don’t miss out on the Count’s misadventures, nor those of Isoliero and The Countess Adele to give him his just deserts!
Ticket Availability: Online orders are now open (no fees, thanks to Zeffy!). Tickets will also be sold at the door on a first-come, first-served basis until the house sells out.
This performance will feature the incorporation of a Pico Scene into the action of the show! Pico Scenes is a unique educational opportunity open to members of the Pico Opera Chorus to take the spotlight—directing, producing and performing in classic opera scenes as soloists.
As with all Pico Opera performances, join us afterwards for our Dessert Reception with the Cast!
