| Boston Lyric Opera's L’elisir d’amore
|
With music that sparkles and a
playful libretto, this reimagined production of a Donizetti favorite is
charming. Nemorino is mad for Adina, who (of course) doesn’t know he
exists. He’ll do anything: confess, dissemble, enlist—to get Adina to fall
in love with him. If only there were a magic love potion ... Say, what’s
in that bottle?

| Boston Ballet - THREE
MASTERPIECES |
The season concludes with three
celebrated works by three master choreographers: George Balanchine’s
elegant, luminous Concerto Barocco; Antony Tudor’s profoundly
moving Dark Elegies, and Twyla Tharp’s explosive, exciting In
the Upper Room.
Created in 1937, Antony Tudor’s Dark
Elegies, danced to Gustav Mahler’s poignant song cycle
Kindertotenlieder, is a profound and moving exploration of mourning and a
community’s grief in response to tragedy. The themes of the ballet
continue to resonate powerfully today with both dancers and
audiences.
