The greedy relatives of the wealthy Buoso Donati (Boo-OHsoh) gather at his deathbed to mourn his passing, and to investigate the details of his will. Young Rinuccio (Rih-NEWchee-oh) makes his Aunt Zita (ZEE- tah) promise to let him marry his beloved Lauretta if there is enough money. She agrees, but the will reveals the inheritance has been left to a monastery. In desperation, Rinuccio’s family turns to Lauretta’s father, the shrewd, self-made man, Gianni Schicchi (Johnny Skeekee). At the urging of Lauretta (who sways him with the popular aria, “O mio babbino caro”), Schicchi agrees to help and, with the aid of Rinuccio’s family, sets a risky plan in motion. Impersonating the dead man, he sends for the notary, and creates a new will. But Schicchi's role play includes an unexpected twist that will leave everyone reeling!

Sister Angelica has been in a convent for seven years, waiting in vain for word from her family. The other sisters speculate that she was a princess, banished for reasons they have not discovered. One day, a magnificent coach arrives, bearing Angelica’s aunt, the Princess. The Princess is cold and unfriendly to her niece—rejecting Angelica’s affection. She declares that as payment for the disgrace Angelica brought on the family, she wishes her to sign over her inheritance to her younger sister who is engaged to be married. When Angelica eventually learns the news that she longed to hear, about the secret child who drove her to the convent, she gives into her aunt’s request, then takes devastating actions she soon regrets. As the story draws to a close, this abbreviated opera resonates with themes of motherly love, heavenly beauty and redemption.
