UBC Opera Ensemble

Old Auditorium

At a high-society party in turn-of-the-century Paris, potential suitors await the arrival of Anna Glawari, the frisky tempestuous widow of an outrageously wealthy man in search of true love. But, she faces a tough decision: If she decides to marry only for love, her tiny country will be left bankrupt! What unfolds is an embassy plot to match and marry her off to her country’s most eligible bachelor, handsome Count Danilo. Anna, adamant on finding true love, tests Danilo’s heart. Lovers' crazy trysts, lavish parties, spirited hijinks and political intrigue ensue and makes this joyful operetta one not to be missed.
