»Æ¹Ï´«Ã½, video: Opera Louisiane's 'Pagliacci' chorus rehearses in the Manship's Studio Theatre
The chorus for Opera Louisiane's production of "Pagliacci" gathered together on May 4 for a rehearsal in the Manship Theatre's Studio Theatre.
Ruggero Leoncavallo's Pagliacci follows a troupe of traveling actors performing traditional Italian commedia dell’arte. Canio, the troupe’s leader, suspects his wife, Nedda, of infidelity. As jealous tensions rise and the offstage drama mirrors the onstage performance, real-life passions boil over into a deadly conclusion. Inspired by a true crime, this gripping opera blurs the line between theater and reality.
The chorus is among 40 performers that will be performing in the opera on May 16 and 18 in the Manship Theatre in the Shaw Center for the Arts. The Friday show begins at 7:30 p.m., and the Sunday show starts at 3 p.m.
Tickets are $40-$100. Visit .
