Before the grand pageantry of Hollywood’s Cleopatra or The Ten Commandments, there was Verdi’s Aida. Set in the Egypt of the Pharaohs, this vast, sweeping saga
of love, loyalty and treason is an operatic tour de force which stirs the emotions like few others. The conflicted love triangle of Aida the servant girl, Radames the
soldier, and Amneris the princess combines with the sumptuous music of Verdi for an evening that will long be remembered. Experience the powerful triumph that
is Aida.
