From the moment he wrote it, Verdi knew he had a hit on his hands.
Rigoletto has everything: royalty, loyalty, devotion, lust and revenge. The sensational music is full of hummable tunes including ‘La donna è mobile’, and the plot is a thriller where a father risks everything for revenge.
Elijah Moshinsky’s much-loved production of Rigoletto returns to the Sydney Opera House stage, complete with its glamorous La Dolce Vita-inspired sets and costumes and scene-stealing Fiat 500. The revolving dolls-house style set gives cinematic detail to each scene.
