🎭 Verdi’s Otello – A Grand Opera Experience
🗓 Friday & Saturday, February 6 and 7, 2026 – 5:00 PM
📍 Teatro Ángela Peralta, San Miguel de Allende
If you think opera is all tragic sopranos and Vikings with horns, think again. Verdi’s Otello is a whirlwind of love, deceit, and jealousy so potent it makes your average soap opera look like a polite tea party. With Verdi’s glorious score—complete with a full orchestra, a rafter-shaking chorus, and heart-stopping arias—you’re in for an evening of sheer musical and theatrical electricity.
Based on Shakespeare’s Othello, the story follows a brilliant general, Otello—sung by Rodrigo Garciarroyo, returning to the stage after several years—who falls deeply in love with the radiant Desdemona, portrayed by Jacinta Barbachano, whose silver voice and dazzling high notes have captivated audiences season after season. Their happiness is short-lived when the cunning Iago, sung by audience favorite Enrique Angles, plots to destroy them out of pure envy. His weapon of choice? Not poison, not daggers—just a handkerchief.
From the stormy opening that will have you clutching your seat, to Otello’s triumphant “Esultate!”, to Desdemona’s heart-rending “Ave Maria,” and Iago’s chilling “Credo,” Verdi’s music captures every facet of the human heart—love, fear, faith, and betrayal.
Our production brings together a full orchestra and powerful chorus to deliver Verdi’s masterpiece in blazing glory. Expect the thunder of timpani, the shimmer of violins, and voices that soar with passion. While it’s a tale of jealousy and tragedy, Otello is also a celebration of the human spirit and of music’s ability to move us to the core.
Whether you’re an opera devotee or new to the art form, Otello is the perfect choice—fast-paced, gripping, and emotionally unforgettable.
