THE ITALIAN GIRL IN ALGIERS - PERFORMANCE DATES: October 2, 8 and 10, 2010

Missing lovers, meddling servants, jealous wives, oh my!  The Bey of Algiers is bored with his wife and sends his captain off to find a new bride.  When his servant produces the survivor of a shipwreck, a feisty Italian girl searching for her lost lover, this story defines the phrase, "Be careful what you wish for!"  Join us for one of the greatest comedies in opera, dazzling with Rossini's exuberant melodies and the age old tale of how far one will go for love.
