Placido Domingo stars as a Venetian head of state, desperate to protect his son -- and himself -- from the ruthless enemies that sround them. Domingo and James Conlon join forces in a new production of this Verdi masterpiece. The languid canals and boisterous festivals of 15th-century Venice conceal a deadly web of ecret plots and vindictive rivalries. Caught up in forces beyond their control, a father and son struggle to reclaim honor in a city that knows no mercy.
