Description:

Matteo Manuguerra delivers a compelling performance as Rigoletto, leaving one to wonder why his career wasn’t more prominent. If his tone occasionally feels too beautiful for the character’s darker impulses, it also lends a striking poignancy to his scenes with Gilda. Christiane Eda-Pierre offers both fullness of tone and impressive agility as Gilda, capturing the role’s vocal and emotional demands with ease. John Macurdy adds weight to the cast as a well-appointed Sparafucile.
