LA SCUOLA DE' GELOSI

POP kicks off the new year with the US premiere of Antonio Salieri’s La scuola de' gelosi. POP’s colorful period production of this comedy of errors features some of the best of Salieri’s music, with a plot mirroring Mozart’s Così fan tutte. Complete with table seating, food, and wine, La scuola de' gelosi will be presented on the elaborate proscenium set originally built for POP’s 2023 production of Ercole su'l Termodonte. Kyle Naig will lead from the harpsichord, and Josh Shaw directs.
