Puccini's masterpiece Tosca is a story about love, politics, hatred and conspiracy. Its graphic description of the social reality, profound exploration of human nature and vivid interpretation of love and hatred has made it an undisputable classic in the field of opera.

For the 2011 Opera Festival, NCPA has invited Giancarlo del Monaco, currently the most popular opera maestro in the world, to be the director. Since the 1980s, Giancarlo has been one of the most sought-after directors, and has staged productions in renowned theatres in major cities around the world, including the Metropolitan Opera in the USA, the Opera House of Nice in France, and La Scala Opera House in Italy. The new version of Tosca also represents a break from people's old visual habits. With slightly tilting and twisted stage designs, it aims to bring about a religious atmosphere of stunning grandeur.

SYNOPSIS

Painter Cavaradossi is arrested in covering a political criminal. To rescue her lover, opera singer Tosca gives herself to the Chief of Police Scarpia. Scarpia promises Tosca to conduct a mock execution. After getting the pass, Tosca kills Scarpia when he is not prepared. In the morning, Cavaradossi is taken to the execution ground. Unfortunately, the gun is equipped with a real bullet. The soldiers fire, and Mario falls. Tosca is so despaired that she jumps from the rampart and falls to her death...
