📆 Friday, May 15 • 7:30pm
📍The Grand Opera House, 818 N. Market St, Wilmington

Inspired by the life of real-life poet André Chénier, this gripping work of Italian verismo opera follows an artist who dares to speak truth to power. As the world around him crumbles into chaos and bloodshed, Chénier’s words become weapons—elevating ideals of liberty and love above fear and oppression. But when he falls for the noblewoman Maddalena and crosses paths with the vengeful revolutionary Gérard, a tragic triangle forms with fate hanging in the balance.

With its sumptuous melodies, lush orchestration, and unforgettable arias, Andrea Chénier is a musical and emotional tour de force. From the soaring lyricism of “Come un bel dì di maggio” to the searing final duet, Giordano’s score pulses with human drama and revolutionary fire. This is verismo at its grandest and most passionate—where art meets action, and the personal becomes political.

Staged with a full orchestra, commanding chorus, and the magnificent voices of the OperaDelaware Company Artists, this production will ignite the stage of Wilmington’s Grand Opera House. Don’t miss the rare opportunity to experience this lavish and rarely performed gem, brought to blazing life in all its glory.
