The Turk in Italy at the Sydney Opera House
No trip to Sydney is complete without a visit to the Sydney Opera House, the city’s most famous building. And what better to do when visiting the Sydney Opera House than to spend a pleasant evening inside enjoying an opera performance.
A poet with writer’s block is searching for inspiration as he writes his story. The flirtations and furies of his little seaside Italian town are boring him, but things heat up when a handsome Turkish prince arrives in town.
Suddenly, Fiorilla finds herself torn between her boring old husband Geronio, her jealous young lover Narciso and the mysterious, dashing young Turk.
The Turkish Selim has problems of his own: how can he choose between the vivacious Fiorilla and the sad-eyed gypsy girl he once loved?
Perhaps a costume ball will help sort things out? (Because that always works!)
Suddenly, the poet’s story is a romantic comedy with all the ingredients for success: love, jealousy and mistaken identities.
