Passions and rivalries collide in this star studded production of Mozart’s rarely performed work. When family patriarch Mitridate is presumed dead, his children Farnace and Sifare return home to stake claims to his money, his power — and his fiancée Aspasia. With a bristling score written by Mozart at the age of 14, Mitridate explores the tensions of a fractured family amidst jealousy, aging, betrayal, and desire.
BLO Music Director David Angus conducts and stage director James Darrah leads an extraordinary cast that includes Brenda Rae as Aspasia, John Holiday as Farnace, and celebrated tenor Lawrence Brownlee in the title role.
