The Israeli Opera

Donizetti’s L’elisir d’amore opens the Israeli Opera's 2025 season with a unique Israeli twist.

Israel has plenty to do during the holiday week.

The opera is in the process of reorganizing its managerial responsibilities in order to successfully cope with new challenges.

It is a thought-provoking production, and the costumes, acting, and singing of Verdi’s inspirational music all combine for a memorable experience.

For Lahyani, one of the near-miraculous aspects of opera is how the emotions the singers release on stage enter the heart of the audience instantly, in a never-to-be-repeated moment.

The program includes a diverse selection of almost-certain hits, such as Donizetti’s L’elisir d’amore (The Elixir of Love), which will premier later this year.

The opera features an almost entirely female cast and offers a profound exploration of Catholic culture.

Will the prince be able to repair the damage and keep his love human, or will she morph into a murderous spirit?

With their proven track record, Oppenheim, Sharon, and their cohorts will do the British comics justice and leave their Opera House patrons whistling a tune or two, smiling, or possibly laughing.

Donizetti’s ‘Lucia di Lammermoor’ opens The Israeli Opera’s new season to a cheering audience.
