Libretto
Well not quite, but the story of Rigoletto I have to find out before going to Verona (yes, we got tickets!). It goes:
Rigoletto-story
Somebody said that Shakespeare had already written all the stories there are to write. All others are just followers on the same themes. That might be true.
Nevertheless, I shall enjoy the opera. And reading the story beforehand is a good idea, my Italian is a bit rusty actually. And Verona is not la Scala, where they after the renovation have displays in front of every seat, so that you can follow the story both in Italian and English. Mind you, the tickets to Verona are a hell of a lot cheaper...
