Ready to Join?

Get ready for an evening overflowing with wit, rhythm, and dazzling Italian energy!

Rossini’s L’Italiana in Algeri is one of the most brilliant examples of Italian opera buffa — a whirlwind of humor, charm, and irresistible melodies.
The story follows the clever Italian beauty Isabella, who finds herself in Algiers and must outsmart the powerful yet comically naïve Bey Mustafà.
What unfolds is a delightful battle of wits, love, and cultural misunderstandings — all wrapped in Rossini’s sparkling music and breathtaking vocal fireworks.

Expect fast-paced ensembles, playful orchestration, and that signature Rossini crescendo that never fails to thrill. Whether you’re a seasoned opera lover or discovering his genius for the first time, this performance promises laughter, brilliance, and unforgettable Italian flair ✨

🍷 Before the curtain rises, we could meet nearby for a drink or dinner — the place is still to be defined, but it would be lovely to gather beforehand and start the evening in good company.
