Manon - Schedule, Program & Tickets
Manon
Opéra comique in five acts
after Abbé Prévost
Content:
Manon, who feels irresistibly attracted to wealth, is on her way to the convent.
She falls in love with the Chevalier Des Grieux - and he with her. But their time together is short, as Manon gives in to the advances of the rich Brétigny. This doesn't last long either, and she soon returns to her beloved Des Grieux. He wants to improve his financial situation through gambling.
