Set in Rome, 1800, this gripping opera tells the story of Floria Tosca – a tempestuous opera singer who is used to being in the spotlight. But the on-stage drama turns into real life tragedy when she discovers her lover Cavaradossi has been captured by Baron Scarpia. There is only one way to save him – Tosca must give herself to Scarpia or Cavaradossi will be killed.
Experience one of the world's most beloved operas as Puccini's thriller of romance and revolution returns to the stunning surroundings of the Royal Opera House.
Jonathan Kent’s classic staging conjures all the beauty and bloodshed of 19th-century Rome, while the emotive music of Tosca’s score transports us inside the conflicted souls of its characters.
