Composed directly after his hugely successful Rigoletto, La Traviata, and Il Trovatore, Verdi’s Un Ballo in Maschera depicts a deeply human tale of forbidden passion between two very grown-up lovers. This stunning production sets Verdi’s abiding love triangle in the American south of the 1960s, with its undertones of Kennedy-era tensions and power plays.
