Why see Florida Grand Opera - I Pagliacci?
Tears of a clown
For centuries, the joy and comedy that clowns bring their audiences have often been fused with the dark underbelly of human emotions - despair, revenge, and rage.

Experience its majesty in this production from Florida Grand Opera, coming to you in winter 2024.
