Event Description
The Rake’s Progress, a tale of idle hands and the trouble they cause, is based on a series of engravings by William Hogarth. The story follows Tom Rakewell during his descent from rural pleasures into the whirl of London society life, which leads him toward madness and despair. A collection of colorful characters, including the devil himself, lead Tom from pastoral happiness through an urban underbelly, illustrating life's temptations and pitfalls on this eclectic journey. The Rake’s Progress is a quirky, entertaining morality tale that any opera lover will surely delight in. Sung in English.
