The Artist Series, probably Jacksonville's most celebrated and luxe performance subscription is bringing Teatro Lirico D'Europa, a Jenny Kelly Production to the Times Union Performing Center for the Arts for a luscious, bombastic, bodice ripping, diva making performance of Verdi's La Traviata.

According to the wholly inadequate and brief blurb on their ticket site:

Verdi's La Traviata is the famous tragic love story set in 19th century Paris, telling the story of a young man, Alfredo Germont who falls deeply in love with Violetta Valery, a French prostitute. La Traviata, featuring a company of 60 including a full orchestra, will be brought to life on stage with all the passion and intrigue expected in a grand opera. Performed in Italian with English supertitles.  More after the jump.
