- Synopsis:
Rigoletto is the sharp-tongued court jester of the serial womanizer, the Duke of Mantua. But when the Duke takes out his seductive powers on Rigoletto's daughter, Gilda, the court jester learns that he is powerless to protect her. What follows is an epic tale of deceit, revenge and, above all, love. Director Oliver Mears makes his Royal Opera debut with his "thrilling new production" (The Times), which sees Verdi's masterpiece as a modern morality play pitting power against innocence in a decadent world of corruption and social decay. Antonio Pappano conducts an outstanding cast that includes an "absolutely riveting" Carlos Álvarez in the title role, Lisette Oropesa as "an incomparable Gilda" (The Guardian), and tenor Liparit Avetisyan as the Duke of Mantua. - Actors:
