Wagner College Opera Presents SUOR ANGELICA & GALLANTRY In May

Wagner College Opera will present SUOR ANGELICA & GALLANTRY on May 10 in Manhattan & May 11 on Staten Island.

Wagner College Opera presents a Spring double-bill of Moore's Gallantry and Puccini's Suor Angelica. Celebrating the over-the-top, melodramatic traditions of staged opera and soap opera, Gallantry is a zany, comedic peek into the production of a 1950s day-time television show, ad breaks and all. Suor Angelica centers on the young and beautiful Sister Angelica and the mystery of her banishment to a convent. Famous for his soaring melodies and rich orchestrations, Puccini's tragic masterpiece features some of his most glorious, haunting, and inspired musical moments, including the iconic aria "Senza mamma."
