Annapolis Opera’s fully staged production of Giacomo Puccini’s Tosca will give audiences the chance to experience one of the most violent, salacious, and beloved operas of all time. Tosca has it all—political intrigue, lust, torture, murder, suicide, and some of the most glorious music Puccini ever wrote. Set in Rome in 1800 as Napoleon’s invading army marches on the city, Tosca reflects the political intrigue and uncertainty of the times.
