Il viaggio a Reims Company Premiere Music by Gioachino Rossini Libretto by Luigi Balocchi Performed in Italian with English supertitles Exactly 200 years ago, Rossini dared to celebrate the coronation of Charles X with this ebullient satire of class, manners, and the timeless misery of long-distance travel. In his long-awaited American debut, Olivier Award-winning director Damiano Michieletto transforms this showpiece into a theatrical work of art, setting the story in a present-day gallery on the cusp of opening a major exhibition. The production’s rich narrative and visual palette shade Rossini’s joyful musical canvas, blurring the line between life and art. Jack Mulroney Music Director Corrado Rovaris leads a sparkling ensemble cast featuring the luminous soprano Brenda Rae. All tickets are Pick Your Price, starting at $11. Any amount above $11 helps support other operagoers and the work we present on stage. In addition, $10 rush tickets will be available before the performance.
