Giuseppe Verdi
FALSTAFF
Comic opera in three acts, in Italian, with Hungarian, English, and Italian subtitles
"There is only one way to end your career more splendidly than with Otello, and that is to end it with Falstaff!" So Verdi was told by his librettist and good friend, Arrigo Boito. Although the elderly master had not tried his hand at comedy since the ugly failure of Un giorno di regno in 1840, fifty years later the dry spell ended: Sir John Falstaff, the fat and rakish knight invented by the composer's favourite author, Shakespeare, would become his second comic opera, as well as his final – and perhaps most brilliant – work. This comedy conceived by world-renowned director Arnaud Bernard will be returning to the stage of the Opera House with a parade of stars for a cast!
