Mozart's Don Giovanni - Opera Australia

Presented by Opera Australia & Civic Theatre Newcastle

Don Giovanni by Mozart

It’s the last day of Don Giovanni’s life, but he doesn’t know that.

For opera’s own Casanova, it’s just another day of pleasure seeking. Seducing a bride on her wedding day. Breaking into a woman’s bedroom in the dead of night. Killing her furious father.

Even before the curtain rises, Mozart reveals Don Giovanni’s fate. An earth-shattering chord from the orchestra signals the gates of hell clanging open. The scoundrel’s debauched days are at an end.

With Regional Children's Chorus The Hunter Trebles
