Verdi's RIGOLETTO at IF Opera Festival - designed by Elliott Squire

Verdi's RIGOLETTO opened at the IF Opera Festival in Wingfield last night - with Set, Costume & Prop Design by Elliott Squire.

Since its triumphant premiere in 1851, Verdi’s masterpiece Rigoletto has remained at the very heart of the operatic repertoire. The story revolves around Rigoletto, the court jester to the morally corrupt Duke of Mantua, who is tormented by the Duke's lecherous behaviour and vows to protect his daughter, Gilda. However, the Duke has already set his sights on the innocent girl, and Rigoletto unknowingly facilitates the seduction, with devastating consequences.

Elliott is also Associate Designer for ORPHEUS IN THE UNDERWORLD - opening tonight.

Playing until August 16th.
