Marrying Mozart, a play by Michael Capasso is adapted from Stephanie Cowell's best-selling novel and features performances of the music of W.A. Mozart. Marrying Mozart is an appealing portrait of the young Mozart in Vienna, struggling to find work as a composer and encountering the delightful Weber sisters, four young women who engage his passion, his music, and his heart.

A Co-Production with Opera Moderne, all performances are at Dicapo Opera Theatre, 184 East 76th Street at Lexington Avenue. Tickets, at $50, are available by calling Smarttix at 212-868-4444 or by visiting the Dicapo Web site at www.dicapo.com
