Item Description
Enjoy an amazing night out at the opera with two tickets to Puccini's Turandot or Stephen Sondheim's Putting it Together by the St. Petersburg Opera Company!
Set in China, Turandot is the story of a princess so beautiful that men come from all over the world to vie for her love. However, any man who wants to marry Princess Turandot must first answer three riddles - and if he fails, he will die. Turandot features what may be the most famous aria in opera, "Nessun dorma!" ("None shall sleep!").
Putting It Together, a musical revue of Stephen Sondheim's greatest hits, delivers an evening of memorable music and stories. Putting It Together pieces together a lavish collection of Sondheim songs to tell the timeless tale of human relationships of love and loss. It is a triumphant show that features moments of hilarious laughter and beautiful music and song.
The St. Petersburg Opera produces professional, fully-staged operas in the historic, 880-seat Palladium Theater in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida, as well as other venues in the Tampa Bay area.
