Mantua, Italy. Rigoletto, the Duke of Mantua's jester, has a secret daughter. The Duke seduces her after having her abducted and brought to his palace by courtiers who think she is the jester's mistress. Rigoletto vents his rage on them and demands his daughter back. After convincing his daughter that the Duke does not love her, he plots his revenge...
Javier Camarena and Antonino Siragusa have chosen the Liceu for their debut as the Duke of Mantua, starring beside Carlos Álvarez in this luxury production. Rigoletto, based on a play by Victor Hugo, is part of the operatic canon and was censored before the premiere for criticizing the monarchy of the period.
Monique Wagemakers' mise en scène is minimalist but of great technical complexity. The red Venetian Renaissance costumes recreate Rigoletto's full range of fierce emotions.
