Running Time

Hot courtesan Violetta (Sonya Yoncheva) falls for toff Alfredo (Michael Fabiano) and they shack up together. But having sacrificed her life of luxury for love, she finds herself implored by his dad, Giorgio (Thomas Hampson), to dump him for the sake of the family’s reputation.

Sonya Yoncheva returns to the role of tragic courtesan Violetta in Verdi‘s opera, in which she triumphed at the Met back in 2015.
