Following its acclaimed Sydney season in 2015, Operantics’ debut production of Mozart’s final opera buffa (comic opera) comes to the Penrith Symphony Orchestra 2016 season.
Così fan tutte, ossia La scuola degli amanti (Thus Do They All, or The School for Lovers) is a tale of love, deception and forgiveness. The fiancée-swapping
antics are updated to modern-day Sydney, as two young North Shore lads assume disguises to test the faithfulness of their girlfriends – two socialite sisters from the Eastern Suburbs.
All kinds of antics ensue that take the lovers far from the safety of their privileged upbringings. At the end of the day, is anyone to be trusted in
love?
