Opera San Antonio: Pagliacci

When a traveling acting troupe arrives to perform in a bustling town, the secrets and jealousies among them threaten to explode onstage—with deadly consequences.

In Pagliacci, Canio manages a small touring company of actors. In the town where they're about to perform, he's enraged to discover that his wife Nedda, the company's leading actress, has fallen in love with a handsome young man from the town, Silvio, and is planning to run away with him. Canio, the clown, laughs on the outside, but inside, he's seething with jealousy that culminates in searing passion, riveting drama, and unforgettably thrilling music.
