The Academy Of Vocal Arts to Present Verdi's LA TRAVIATA in November
One of opera's enduringly popular classics, La traviata has thrilled audiences with the tragic love story of Alfredo and Violetta for over 160 years.

The Academy of Vocal Arts will open its 88th opera season with Verdi's La traviata. Performances will be held in Center City, the Main Line and the Lehigh Valley November 11-29, 2022.
Plagued by sickness, Violetta finds love in Alfredo, but before long they are torn apart by betrayal. A "fallen woman", she is forced to abandon her lover, until the truth comes out and they are reunited, if only for a moment. One of opera's enduringly popular classics, La traviata has thrilled audiences with the tragic love story of Alfredo and Violetta for over 160 years.
AVA has presented La traviata seven times throughout its 88-year history, and has featured opera stars such as Michael Fabiano, Taylor Stayton, Bryan Hymel, William Davenport, Sydney Mancasola, and Musa Ngqungwana.
