Così Fan Tutte follows two men as they follow the promptings of an arch-manipulator to test the constancy of their lovers.
The course of true love doesn’t run smooth in this contemporary staging of Mozart’s timeless opera exploring the fascinations and frailties of human nature.
Così Fan Tutte is performed as part of the Royal Opera House’s Olympic Programme, which includes all three of the operas created by Mozart and librettist Lorenzo da Ponte.
Così Fan Tutte is performed in Italian with English surtitles.
