The Elixir of Love

by Gaetano DonizettiAugust 1–3, 2008

We staged our production of L'elisir d'amore in a frontier town of late 1800s America. Director Tomer Zvulun combined our singer's polished voices with elements of slapstick comedy, especially in the characters of Belcore, his regiment and Dr. Dulcamara. The festival's apprentice program performed in the chorus, as well as doing a scenes program during the Cherry Street Art Fest.
