The Merry Widow at St. Petersburg Opera Company

Glamorous widow Hanna Glawari is worth 20 million francs, which the scheming Pontevedrin ambassador, Baron Zeta, wants to keep in the country. Of her prospective suitors, only Count Danilo holds the key to Hannas heart through a series of misunderstandings, jealous rages, comic interludes and moments of unbridled passion, The Merry Widow takes them and the audience from elegant parties to the intimate inner recesses of the human heart. In English with projected text above the stage. By Franz Lehar; English version by Ted and Deena Puffer.
