‘Tosca’ at Guild Hall

The Met: Live in HD will return to Guild Hall on Saturday at 1 p.m. with David McVicar’s production of Puccini’s “Tosca.” Premiered in Rome in 1900, and set in that city a century earlier, the melodrama centers around Floria Tosca, a diva; Mario, an artist, and Baron Scarpia, a corrupt police chief.

Lise Davidsen, a Norwegian soprano, sings the title role, Freddie De Tommaso, a British-Italian tenor, plays her lover, and Quinn Kelsey, an American baritone, is the sadistic police chief. Xian Zhang conducts.

Tickets are $30, $27 for members.

Guild Hall has announced that Anthony Madonna, its director of learning and new works, has been promoted to theater director and curator of performing arts. “Anthony has a keen eye for artistry and the rigor to run a top-notch performing arts program,” said Andrea Grover, the venue’s executive director. “He gives artists the attention they need to create their best work.”
