Messalina, Pallavicino
D: Céline Ricci
C: Jory Vinikour
An “Anti-Fidelio” Opera from 17th-Century Venice

Thus, between the wealth of physical comedy of dalliance and Pallavicino’s abundance of engaging music, the duration of the entire program proceeded at a spirited clip, resulting in an audience leaving the ODC Theater in high spirits.

Ars Minerva Discovers Lusty Amazons Opera

Ars Minerva’s sophomore outing on May 21–22, Carlo Pallavicino’s The Amazons in the Fortunate Isles, promises an equally satisfying excavation of a Venetian tragicomedy.
