Don Giovanni October 18, 2026
The path to damnation never sounded so sweet
The 2026/27 Season kicks off with a thrilling fable of deceit and retribution. Sharp humor, high drama, and an exquisite score intertwine in the story of a charismatic lord whose unrepentant lustfulness brings about a most spectacular demise.
Singing with a voice that can “shake the heavens” (Opera Today), bass-baritone and Lyric veteran Christian Van Horn stars as one of opera’s most infamous anti-heroes to crown a stellar cast.
Director Robert Falls’s instant-classic take on this morality tale for the ages offers an expansive and hard-hitting Don Giovanni sure to satisfy anyone with a wicked taste for drama.
