Capitol City Opera Company was formed in 1983 to provide an opportunity for Atlanta’s classically trained singers to continue their post-graduate vocal and acting skills, by performing complete opera roles on a professional level.  Since its inception, the company has expanded its reach to young singers throughout the world and now exports its product all over the United States.  The troupe has grown exponentially as a producer of innovative and exciting professional opera theatre.  It has flourished as the only opera company in the Southeast that primarily helps local singers establish their careers.

 

Capitol City Opera will be performing Mozart’s Cozi Fan Tutte

 

Ferrando and Guglielmo think that their fiancées, Fiordiligi and Dorabella,

will always remain loyal. Don Alfonso, an old bachelor, bets the two

young men that their fiancées are no more faithful than other women are.

As part of the bet, the two men pretend to be sent off to battle but instead

dress up as two Albanian suitors. After a series of hilarious attempts, the

two Albanians manage to gain the love of Fiordiligi and Dorabella. After

losing the bet and being enraged at their fiancées’ lack of will, the two

men decide that they are all a bit wiser. The men still love their fiancées,

despite their infidelities, and want to get married...after all, all women are

like that.
