Così fan tutte is a comedy and tragedy all at once.
It is hilarious, zany opera buffa, and at the same time it is a
profound, realistic, and deeply human drama. How much are we willing to
wager on a loved one's fidelity? And what are we willing to learn about
ourselves in the process? Aptly subtitled The School for Lovers,
this masterful opera puts all its principal characters to the test, and
each is found to be human. The world is turned upside down for the young
lovers in this opera, and generations of audiences since 1790 have been
left wondering what happen after the final curtain.
