- **Event Name**: Odyssey Opera presents Gian Carlo Menotti’s The Last Savage
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 13 Mar, 2026 at 08:00 pm – Fri, 13 Mar, 2026 at 11:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Mid-March, Odyssey Opera presents its staged production of Gian Carlo Menotti’s The Last Savage at Boston’s historic Huntington Theatre. The three act opera buffa’s eclectic score and unexpected libretto delightfully subvert convention through Mozartian comic tropes.

Set in a satirical vision of 20th Century society, Kitty, the spirited daughter of a wealthy American anthropologist, insists on finding (and taming) a “savage” to prove her independence. She “discovers” Abdul, a young man living in the wilderness of India and drags him to the modern world as her prize specimen. Abdul’s transformation into a polished socialite exposes the absurdities of primitive stereotypes and the shallow sophistication of high society.

Menotti’s witty libretto skewers cultural pretensions, consumerism, and the clash between tradition and progress, while his score blends lyrical arias, jazzy rhythms, and a pastiche of operatic conventions. The result is a playful — yet biting — comedy that asks: Is civilization, itself, the true masquerade?
