Summer Concerts in the Garden

Opera Picnic - "Don Giovanni"

Sunday August 30^th 5:30pm Start - 4:30pm Gates Open

Grab your picnic basket and join us on an August summer evening as Ping & Woof Opera present Don Giovanni live in our gardens.

Synopsis:
Based on the story of the libertine "Don Juan", Mozart's enduring masterpiece tells the tale of Don Giovanni, a reckless philanderer who seduces women (more than 1000 according to his carefully detailed catalog) in total disregard for civil and divine authority. But in the wake of a life lived to excess, his day of reckoning finally approaches. Caught in the act of seducing the Commendatore's daughter Donna Anna, Giovanni accidentally kills the Commendatore when he comes to defend his daughter's honor. After more misdeeds and attempted seductions, Giovanni finds himself pursued by those he has wronged. Hiding in a churchyard, he unexpectedly meets the specter of the Commendatore in the form of a statue. Still unabashedly defiant, Giovanni invites the statue to supper, only to discover the irrevocable consequences for his dissolute actions as the statue exacts his revenge.
