Suor/Schicchi at Mission Opera
Mission Opera pairs two of Giacomo Puccinis most popular operas Suor Angelica and Gianni Schicchi for its next Mainstage production, with shows scheduled for Friday, October 18, through Sunday, October 20, 2019, at Los Angles Mission College (the 18th and 19th) and Santa Clarita United Methodist Church (the 20th). These two operas highlight Puccinis mastery of emotional storytelling, each sharing two contrasting tales about moral hypocrisy and greed.
Dylan Thomas, of Valley Opera and Performing Arts (formerly Center Stage Opera) directs these two brilliant one-act shows, with Timothy León conducting. Suor Angelica and Gianni Schicchi work well together because they are so different, says Mission Operas Artistic Director, Dr. Joshua R. Wentz. The former is truly governed by religious expectations and family reputation, while the latter completely upsets these social norms of the time. In Suor Angelica, God is the moral compass, but Gianni Schicchi is about humanly desire and material possession.
Suor Angelica will last 1 hour and will be followed by a 15-minute intermission. Gianni Schicchi will last 1 hour.
