Angelo

About the show

In Padua in 1549, Tisbe loves Rodolfo, but he loves Catarina, who is secretly his lover. Tisbe recognizes Catarina’s crucifix as the one her mother gave years earlier to a Venetian noblewoman’s daughter and secretly helps Catarina and Rodolfo escape Angelo’s jealous control. Catarina takes a sleeping potion, allowing her to be carried to a sealed crypt. Rodolfo, thinking Tisbe poisoned her, stabs Tisbe; Catarina awakens, and Tisbe blesses the couple before she dies.
