Giacomo Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi  – Opera’s most brilliant con man takes the stage! Puccini’s only comedy finds a legendary schemer teaming up with a conniving family eager to secure an inheritance. Love, greed, and the classic aria “O Mio Babbino Caro” are just some of the exciting ingredients that form this wild romp, in new production from director Jimmy Marcheso, set in the fading days of Pre-War Italy.
