Victorian Lyric Opera Company presents “The New Moon”
8 p.m. Friday, March 3 and Saturday, March 4; 2 p.m. Sunday, March 5.
Revolution, romance, mutiny and betrayal are woven throughout this classic 1928 operetta, set in 18th-century New Orleans. Robert, a French aristocrat and revolutionary flees France and settles in New Orleans by selling himself into servitude to a wealthy landowner. He falls in love with the owner’s beautiful daughter, Marianne, but due to his circumstances cannot tell her who he really is. Hunted by a French detective, Robert is eventually captured and put aboard a ship, The New Moon, to be returned to France. Things take a turn when a mutiny occurs onboard and the ship’s entire party, including Robert and Marianne, are made to start life anew on a remote island.
