| Summary |
Sir Peter Hall's production of Mozart's "opera of all operas" has received universal praise, a high accolade for such an original production. Benjamin Luxon perfectly embodies the unconscionable seducer Don Giovanni. The story centers around a young nobleman who is obsessed with amorous conquest. It follows his romantic exploits and continued encounters with Donna Anna, the woman who plots to destroy him. |
