San Francisco Opera’s acclaimed production of Donizetti’s “The Elixir of Love” will screen in high definition at the El Campanil Theatre (602 W. Second Street, Antioch), May 8 at 2 p.m.

This charming comedy is a celebration of innocence, so what setting could be better than a small Italian-American community in the Napa Valley, circa 1915? Tenor Ramón Vargas superbly embodies the role of the lovesick Nemorino, who according to the San Francisco Chronicle “gave a ravishing performance.” Soprano Inva Mula “[was] full of fire and temperament” as the beautiful Adina.

This is your chance to see this delightful opera with friends and family with this unique and affordable opera experience. Sung in Italian with English subtitles.

Tickets are $10 and may be purchased at El Campanil Theatre in advance or at the theater. For more information, call (925) 757-9500 or visit www.ElCampanilTheatre.com.
