Pagliacci by Ruggero Leoncavallo

Edmonton’s favourite indie opera company is back!

After the success of Cavalleria Rusticana last summer, Pop Goes the Opera presents Pagliacci at the Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival. A dramatic tale of love and betrayal, Pagliacci revolves around a traditional commedia del arte troupe of travelling clowns. This Leoncavallo masterpiece includes the heart-wrenching Vesti la giubba and The Bell Chorus, which will be performed in the acoustically impressive Holy Trinity Anglican Church.
