Tulsa Opera: La Traviata October 17, 2010

The Tulsa Opera presents this classic opera by Giuseppe Verdi. The story centers on Violetta Valery, a Parisian courtesan in the early 1700s, and Alfredo Germont, a young man from the provinces who falls deeply in love with her. After they run away to the country to be together, they soon learn that the social distinctions which divide them are cruel and hypocritical, and that in the end, true love must triumph over all.
