About This Event

The Edinburgh International Festival is set to stage Mozart's iconic opera, Don Giovanni, promising a dramatic evening at the Usher Hall on Sunday 16 August, commencing at 6:30pm. This compelling production delves into the dark heart of seduction, elaborate trickery, and the inevitable path of retribution, all unfolding within the compressed timeframe of a single, fateful day in the life of the infamous libertine, Don Giovanni. A masterful collaboration between the genius of Mozart and the witty libretto of Lorenzo da Ponte, the opera charts the audacious crimes of its roguish protagonist. From his relentless pursuit of women to his disregard for morality, Giovanni's actions lead him inexorably towards a chilling and supernatural reckoning. This performance offers a powerful exploration of human desires and their profound consequences, culminating in a truly unforgettable operatic experience. Further information regarding ticket prices and availability can be found on the official festival website.
