4:00pm: A Little Bit of Don Giovanni | Mozart arr. Derek Clark
In 18th-century Venice, charismatic womaniser Don Giovanni sets his sights on the naive young Donna Anna – with deadly consequences when his plan goes wrong. After a lifetime of flirtation, can our roguish anti-hero escape the consequences of his actions? Packed full of dramatic fights and comedic misunderstandings, Mozart’s ever-popular opera mixes darkness and light in this thrilling tale of the ultimate reckoning.
