Lyric Opera Lecture

Lyric Opera Lecture: Falstaff
What happens when an old knight who still fancies himself a ladies' man sends identical love letters to two married women? Plenty, as Sir John, that wine-bibbing rascal and roué, finds out when the merry wives of Windsor (and a few furious husbands) decide to teach him a lesson and hang him out to dry! Verdi at the peak of his powers, and inspiration from Shakespeare.
Lecture by Dr. Michael Altman on January 22, noon, at North Branch.
Lecture by Loretta Caputo on January 26, 2 pm, at the Main Library.
