MADISON (WKOW) -- The opera season is underway in Madison Wisconsin! You can get your tickets now for one or all of the upcoming shows. The season gets underway the Verdi's A Masked Ball.
The production will run on Friday, October 26 and Sunday, October 28 at the Overture Center for the Arts. In Verdi's lush opera, based on the real-life assassination of King Gustav III of Sweden, the King's love for his best friend's wife becomes an instrument of murder. Illicit love, a fortune-teller, a masked ball, vows of vengeance, and thrilling music make up this rich theatrical tapestry, as the King is conspired against and ultimately betrayed by his most trusted friend.
