The National Theatre of Opera and Ballet prepares to stage one of Gaetano Donizetti’s most famous operas, L’elisir d’amore.

The opera, known for its comic charm and romantic flair, will run on February 11, 12, 13, and 14. The story unfolds in a picturesque coastal village, where Nemorino, a shy young man, believes a magical elixir can win Adina’s heart. Donizetti’s music transforms the elixir into a symbol of hope and human desire for love and recognition.

Moreover, the production features prominent Albanian and international artists, which offers a rich mix of voices and stage presence. Notable performers include Enkeleda Kamani and Gëzim Myshketa, who bring high artistry and professionalism to the show.

In this production, Adina comes to life through Enkeleda Kamani and Nina Muho, highlighting her free and playful character with vocal finesse and stage sensitivity. Meanwhile, Nemorino will be portrayed by Galeano Salas and Matteo Mezzaro, capturing his innocence, emotion, and sincerity.

Additionally, Belcore is performed by Davide Luciano and Artur Vera, commanding the stage with authority. The role of Doctor Dulcamara is played by Gëzim Myshketa and Matteo D’Apolito, adding comic energy and charisma. Gianetta, interpreted by Ana Tafani and Greis Shametaj, brings freshness, elegance, and charm to the ensemble.

Finally, the opera returns to TKOBAP after 14 years, directed by Riccardo Canessa, with scenography and costumes by Alfredo Troisi.

Overall, L’elisir d’amore promises a vibrant, emotional, and playful experience, blending comedy, romance, and exceptional musical talent on the Albanian stage.
