The Toledo Opera presents a striking rendition of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Don Giovanni. The story is timeless: Giovanni seduces and deceives his way through life, but forgets that what goes around, comes around. This rendition, originally performed by the Glimmer Glass Opera in 2003, sets the opera in 1950’s America, when Giovanni, the original playboy, could have rubbed elbows with Hugh Hefner in his prime. Stefan Sanderling of the Toledo Symphony will conduct this stylish and edgy take on a classic masterpiece.
$30-55, Feb 15-8pm, February 17-2pm. Valentine Theatre, 410 Adams St. 419-255-7464. https://www.toledoopera.org —JS
