Puccini’s “Suor Angelica” explores the despair and ultimate salvation of a woman forced to give up her illegitimate son and become a nun. The previews will include recorded musical excerpts designed to enhance the enjoyment and appreciation of the production. The previews are free and open to the public. No registration is required.
