The Elixir of Love Reviews
"Who couldn't go for a bright ray of sunshine right about now?"
San Francisco Chronicle


Be sure not to miss Donizetti's The Elixir of Love!

Raves from the San Francisco Chronicle:
    "It's saucy, it's sweet, it's a stream of laughs and lovely melody...you just can't ask for more."

    "Beautifully sung and staged with a deft balance between romantic tenderness and physical comedy, this is an entertainment perfectly designed to chase away any lingering shadows."

    "Tenor Ramón Vargas gave a ravishing performance."

    "Inva Mula, making an appealing company debut full of fire and temperament."

    And there's more—read the full review here.
The Elixir of Love is a delightful comedy about one man's attempt to win his true love's heart the old-fashioned way—with a magic potion. Ingeniously updated to 1914 in Napa Valley, this sparkling opera follows a shy Italian immigrant as he pursues both his sweetheart and the American dream.
