This opera in three acts – with Italian libretto by Giuseppe Giacosa and Luigi Illica, based on the play La Tosca (1887) by Victorien Sardou – is one of the composer’s most famous, together with Madama Butterfly and La Bohème. Tosca by Giacomo Puccini comes to Rome, where the action of the opera itself unfolds, on the same stage where it was premiered on 14 January 1900 – the Teatro Costanzi, Teatro dell’Opera di Roma – and with a production which follows the original design of the premier.
