SUMMARY:Performance:La Rondine (The Swallow)
DESCRIPTION:*La Rondine* is a bittersweet comedy from one of the best-loved composers of Italian opera. The story follows the love life of courtesan Magda\, who flies away from her wealthy\, pampered life with the unromantic Rambaldo in favor of a passionate affair with the younger (and poorer) Ruggero – disguising her identity as she does so. When two visitors from her past appear\, Magda must wrestle with the question of who she truly is and what she wants.\n\nMusic by Giacomo Puccini\nLibretto by Giuseppe Adami\n\nConducted by Kirk Severtson\nDirected by Stephanie Havey\n\n–––\n*Parking / Traffic alert for attendees:*\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/2026-construction
