Heritage Square Museum Lawn
3800 Homer Street, Northeast Los Angeles, Los Angeles

POP opens our 15th Anniversary Season with an immersive production of Leoncavallo’s Pagliacci, under the stars and overlooked by gorgeous Victorian houses at Heritage Square Museum. One of the most iconic operas of all time, Pagliacci is best known for the haunting aria “Vesti la giubba” and its unforgettable main character, Canio—the clown who must perform while his world falls apart. Set in a worn-down traveling circus, Pagliacci explores themes of jealousy, betrayal, and the blurry line between stage and reality. In classic POP fashion, this production places the audience in the middle of the drama during the opera’s famous “play-within-a-play.”

Performed outdoors with orchestra. Sung in Italian with English supertitles. This performance includes a 20 minute intermission and is intended for audiences aged 13 and up.
