Armstrong Theatre at Torrance Cultural Arts Center (Torrance, CA)
The grandest of grand operas, Giuseppe Verdi’s Aida strikes a brilliant balance of spectacular pageantry and emotional intimacy. The San Francisco Opera captured its critically acclaimed production in a stunning multi-camera, high-definition film that will put you at the show. In this compelling tale of conflicting loyalties and forbidden passion, a bitter love triangle plays out against a backdrop of war and cultural oppression in ancient Egypt. Of soprano Micaela Carosi in the titular role, the San Jose Mercury News raved, “her voice wasn’t only luminous; she was alive in the role … every fear, frustration and outburst of love registered in her voice, face [and] body.”
