At the castle in planned an attack against Gustav, King, but he is waving off warnings about a conspiracy. The King is obsessed with a desperate and destructive passion for Amelia, wife to his Adviser and friend, anckarström. The death threat hanging over himself, he seeks out his beloved. In a cold and dark winter Sweden played out a masked filled with betrayal, political intrigue, and a longing for something quite different.
Maskeradbalen is inspired by a historical event, the murder of Gustav III. The Opera was written in the mid-19th century, and because of the political mood in Europe and the Italian theatre censorship forced Verdi and his lyricist Somma to rewrite the document and transfer the Opera to Boston. Here the Director Tobias Theorell opted for the Italian version of Scribes "Gustave III, ou Le bal masqué". But the people around the King is partially different roles than in reality.
