Independent Opera Company concludes its 14th season with L’Elisir d’Amore (The Elixir of Love), a charming comic opera in two acts composed by Gaetano Donizetti. Premiered in 1832, it remains one of the most beloved works in the bel canto repertoire, celebrated for its warmth, wit, and lyrical beauty.

The story follows Nemorino, a shy, earnest young villager hopelessly in love with the wealthy and self-assured Adina. When a swaggering traveling salesman, Dr. Dulcamara, arrives peddling a “miraculous” love potion, Nemorino eagerly buys it—believing it will win Adina’s heart. What unfolds is a delightful mix of misunderstandings, romantic rivalries, and gentle satire, all culminating in a joyous ending where true love prevails.

The opera is filled with memorable music, including the famous tenor aria Una furtiva lagrima, a moment of heartfelt simplicity that has made the work a staple of opera houses worldwide. Lighthearted yet emotionally sincere, L’Elisir d’Amore blends comedy with touching human insight, making it one of Donizetti’s most enduring masterpieces.

Independent Opera Company’s production will be fully staged, with beautiful costumes and piano accompaniment, performed by some of the finest local singers.

Two performances only on Friday June 26 and Saturday June 27 at 7:30 PM at La Cañada Congregational Church, 1200 Foothill Blvd, La Cañada Flintridge, CA 91011
