Description
"Passion, loyalty, lust and finally tragedy are dramatically highighted in Robert Carsen's "theatre-within-theatre" staging of Puccini's great opera. As the beautiful Tosca, Emily Magee plays opposite the charismatic Jonas Kaufmann (Cavaradossi) and debonair Thomas Hampson (Scarpia); together they bring a rare intensity to this famous tale of love and revenge from beyond the grave." --,(Source of summary not specified)
