Becoming Tosca

You think you know opera? Think again.

Prologue Opera has produced a unique piece of drama that propels the audience into an abridged version of the original opera.

Performed in English, our productions feature newly composed music, the original music and other musical styles, allowing the characters to reveal more about their lives, motivations and relationships.

Becoming Tosca will engage, excite and entertain from the first note to the last, challenging your preconceptions of both the original piece and the art form itself.
