A thrilling tale of fame, passion, and vengeance, Peter Shaffer's Tony Award-winning ‘Best Play' AMADEUS now in Los Angeles in this ferocious new production. "I murdered Mozart!" rings out across Europe from composer Antonio Salieri on his death-bed. Salieri had been the toast of Europe. He had been a devout Catholic all his life. He made a pact with God that he would be the vessel through which God's music would spring. All was good until Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart arrives in Vienna. In horror, Salieri determines that it is Mozart instead who is his God's chosen voice. Mozart's music proves it; God had broken their pact. Salieri now makes a terrible new vow: to block God on earth and teach Him a lesson, using Mozart as the means to that end.
