The audience will meet an unprecedented interactive experience. An unconventional musical, conceived and directed by Ulysses Cruz, with a libretto by Marcos Daud and music by Elton Towersey, which promotes a sensory dive into the mysterious adventure of a man whose identity has been hidden for over 350 years: the man in the iron mask.

Ranking among Verdi’s best-known, most romantic and most tragic operas, La traviata has held the mirror up to society and its hypocritical morals for some 170 years. The terminally ill courtesan Violetta Valéry realises that she must forgo her love for Alfredo Germont, a young man from a respectable family. After abandoning him, she dies in poverty, yet has kept dreaming of the happiness of true love.

Theatre West has added two additional late-night screening dates for groundbreaking Alla Nazimova films Salomé (1923) and Camille (1921) in conjunction with closing weekend of Theatre West’s currently running production, Garden of Alla: The Alla Nazimova Story.

Los Angeles Ballet presents the Los Angeles premiere of Val Caniparoli’s elegant ballet adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’ classic novel La Dame aux Camélias, the inspiration for Verdi’s iconic opera, La Traviata, and the classic Hollywood films Moulin Rouge! starring Nicole Kidman, and Camille starring Greta Garbo.

Soprano Angel Blue’s Violetta didn’t seem as tragic as we’re used to seeing in Verdi’s masterwork and maybe that's right. She’s lived life on her own terms and if she’s dying of tuberculosis, well, c’est la vie. (After all, the source of the piece is French: the Alexandre Dumas fils “La Dame aux Camellias”).
