Virginia Opera readies a rock star staging of Mozart’s “Don Giovanni” at the Dominion Energy Center.
Asked to describe the protagonist of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s “Don Giovanni,” Adam Turner doesn’t mince words: “He’s opera’s original bad boy rock star.”
This weekend, Virginia Opera’s latest rendition of the masterpiece comes to the Dominion Energy Center.
“To me, it’s like the sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll of opera,” explains Turner, Virginia Opera’s artistic director.
