Love, liberty, and laughs— a revolutionary comedy for America’s 250th.
Laughter meets revolutionary spirit in Boston Lyric Opera’s staging of Donizetti’s glorious comedy. Inspired by the life of Deborah Sampson, the Massachusetts revolutionary who disguised herself as a man to fight for independence, this production transports us to Revolutionary-era Boston, telling a heartfelt tale of love and loyalty to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary. With a new English dialogue by Kirsten Greenidge, it’s a patriotic toast to America at 250—and to the rebels who shaped it.
Music by Gaetano Donizetti
Libretto by Jules-Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges, Jean-François Bayard
New English Dialogue by Kirsten Greenidge
Conducted by Kelly Kuo
Directed by John de los Santos
