Falstaff at Segerstrom Center for the Arts, Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall

In honor of Verdi’s 200th birthday, Segerstrom Center brings LA Opera to Orange County for a special concert performance of the crowning glory of the composer’s magnificent career, his comic masterpiece Falstaff. LA Opera Music Director James Conlon, praised internationally for his mastery of Verdi, conducts this unabashed celebration of Merrie Olde England’s lusty days and bawdy nights, starring Italian baritone Roberto Frontali. When Shakespeare’s portly knight of Windsor hatches a plot to improve his love life by courting two different married women, he launches a flood of comic chaos and romantic misadventure.
