Tosca seduces all with her voice, but loves only one man.  When her lover is imprisoned and faces death, she tries to use her charms to save him.  But ultimately she confronts a fateful dilemma: give herself to the very man she despises or her lover will die.  Grand choruses and magnificent scenery make this one of opera’s most compelling masterpieces.
