Poliuto, the dramatic story of the 3rd Century martyr, is one of Donizetti’s most important works. A recent hit in Europe, “Poliuto” is given its first full American staging since 1859 by the Amore Opera. Performed in full production with full orchestra, the opera is conducted by renown Italian maestro Daniele Tirilli, and staged by Amore Artistic Director Nathan Hull. It is sung in Italian with English surtitles.

The plotting pagan priest Callistene (Duncan Hartman) greets the Roman general Severo (Robert Garner).

Poliuto (Paolo Buffagni) is worried that his wife Paolina seems distant.
