Epic singing
Doomed romance
Bad decisions, and their consequences

Everything you love about Italian opera in 90 minutes.

Turiddu, a soldier, returns home to find his beloved Lola married to another man. He seeks revenge through seduction. As Easter bells ring and the village celebrates, forbidden passions burn in the shadows, honor demands blood, and Turiddu pays the ultimate price.

Opera Santa Barbara’s new production of Cavalleria Rusticana draws you into the rugged beauty of 19th century Sicily-the sun-baked villages and orange groves. Against this backdrop, Mascagni’s melodies soar as real people face real consequences.

Starring Max Potter, Xavier Prado, and Todd Thomas
Sung Italian with English translation projected above the stage
1 hour and 30 minutes including intermission
