Tosca

Giacomo Puccini, Composer
Luigi Illica & Giuseppe Giacosa, Librettist

Tosca is a timeless opera that tells a story of love, passion, and political intrigue set in the heart of Rome. The story revolves around the fiery opera singer Floria Tosca, who finds herself caught up in a web of political upheaval and personal sacrifice.

With soaring arias and spine-tingling suspense, the opera hurtles toward a thrilling climax where passion clashes with power, and sacrifice becomes the ultimate act of defiance. Don’t miss this tour de force of soaring music and intense drama.
