Giacomo Puccini's first successful masterpiece will open Eastern Opera's 2018-2019 season at the newly renovated Brook Arts Center on Friday Nov 9th and Sunday Nov 11th. Puccini's passionate adaptation of Prevost's tragic novel is a story about a young woman who makes some bad choices. Set against the poverty-stricken but jubilant lifestyle of 19th-century Paris, capricious, enigmatic Manon is rescued by the love-struck Des Grieux from being sent to the convent but is soon seduced by the glamorous life of luxury, abandoning the man she loves in pursuit of opulence afforded by a wealthy old man. Alas, the 19th century "Material Girl's" avarice takes her down a harrowing path to her tragic end.
