In Donizetti’s 1843 domestic comedy Don Pasquale there are plots and schemes below stairs, above stairs and behind closed doors as it tells the cautionary tale of an elderly bachelor, his intended younger bride and her young lover.
In Jonathan Miller’s doll’s house set-production, the wit and intrigue of the story gain added piquancy. Lyrical arias and moments of dramatic insight come together in one of Donizetti’s best loved comic operas.
Don Pasquale is sung in Italian with English surtitles.
