Tosca is one of Puccini's most powerful operas. With many popular arias and in Scarpia one of the darkest of all operatic characters, Tosca is a complete canvass of passion, power and politics. And there is Tosca herself, the ultimate diva. Puccini has created a fiery woman who stops at nothing to justify her love: a passionate heroine who, despite dedicating her life to art and love, is driven to murder. As the plot plays with passions, it leads to a high voltage finale. The intimate style of Co-Opera's performance creates an irresistible edge in the power and driving force of Puccini. An unforgettable evening.
