A disfigured, cynical entertainer, at the mercy of power, a father who hides his adolescent daughter in panic, a humiliated outsider who, in his greed for revenge, unleashes the tragedy that will cost his daughter her life – the story of Rigoletto, who tries in vain to hide his daughter Gilda from the world and an aristocratic seducer, is one of the great narratives of musical theatre.
Gilda has long since fallen for the seductive
duke. When his henchmen kidnap her, her father sees Rigoletto red. He pays the contract killer Sparafucile to kill the duke and plans to secretly leave the city with Gilda. But Gilda resists her father's will and goes to the place where the duke is to be murdered in the stormy thunderstorm night. Since the triumphant premiere of Rigoletto in 1851 at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice, the work has rightly been continuously on the repertoire of opera houses.

Verdi's breathtaking composition draws the characters with beguiling vocal lines and subtle orchestral design: a profound musical drama with psychologically sophisticated characters and situations.
Karsten Wiegand also places the inner drama of the title character at the centre of his
production. Rigoletto is degraded to the ridiculed clown of a pleasure-seeking and empathetic class that dances on the precipice as a farce, as a caricature of itself. The Spanish-American baritone Daniel Luis de Vicente, who will also make a guest appearance at the Bregenz Festival as Rigoletto on the lake stage this summer, will make his Hanover debut, operalia and tenor Viñas winner Long Long will sing one of the most famous Verdi arias, "La Donna è mobile", as the Duke of Mantua.
