The three-act opera Tosca was composed by Italian Giacomo Puccini and its script was adapted by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa from the play of the same name by French playwright Victorien Sardou. Premiered at Teatro dell'Opera di Roma on January 14th, 1900, Tosca is one of Puccini’s most important works, which not only earns him the greatest fame, but also is an immortal masterpiece in Italian opera history. To this day, Tosca is highly recognized around the globe.

Tosca reveals a love tragedy destined to destruction in a shameless conspiracy. Puccini gains the most detailed and profound insights into the complexities of human nature in the opera. The work is characterized by intensive and unusually moving dramatic effect and exquisite music arrangement, demonstrating Puccini’s pinnacle of artistic creations. Adopting a delicate and splendid music style, the composer not only focuses on the subtleties from the beginning to end, but delivers passionate emotions and renders every scene to the best of his ability. Hence, an astounding unity of music and drama is presented like the texture of the big-screen film picture. In the past century since the premiere, standing the test of time, this opera still amazes audiences with its mesmerizing dramatic powers, the intoxicant classical melody known to all, and the gripping and thrilling storyline and plots. Everybody is filled with admiration for its everlasting charms. Even those who have never watched this opera can be immersed into the long-awaited beauty when the well-known arias resound.

To revive this classic, ensure top quality and make full use of existing production resources, stage director Alessandra Panzavolta and set designer William Orlandi jointly redesign and produce the sets and props. Based on the costumes and makeup in the 2011 version of the NCPA Production Tosca, the new sets and props are well-matched with the costumes and makeup in the 2011 version and reflect on the contemporary audiences’ aesthetic outlook. This opera is rehearsed with new-style lighting design and concise multimedia effects, bursting into new life and vigour. As a co-production by the NCPA, Shanghai Opera House and Shaanxi Opera House, Tosca marks the first-ever cooperation between the NCPA (lead co-producer) with domestic opera houses. Following the upcoming premiere at the NCPA Opera House, scheduled on November 22nd-27th, 2022, Tosca will also greet the audiences at the Shanghai Opera House and Shaanxi Opera House.
