Rigoletto, a co-production between Teatro Regio di Parma (Parma Opera House) and the National Center for the Performing Arts, will return for four shows. This incarnation of Giuseppe Verdi's classic opera features dramatic compositions and vivid portraits of the cast of characters. Legendary tenor Leo Nucci, 72, received a standing ovation when he performed the title role in 2009. He is now set to return to the NCPA stage. Pedro Halffter Caro, artistic director of both Seville's Teatro de la Maestranza and Real Orquesta Sinfonica de Sevilla, will take the baton of the NCPA's orchestra and choir. A mixed cast from China and abroad will perform the other roles.

7:30 pm, July 31-Aug 3. National Center for the Performing Arts, West of Tian'anmen Square, Beijing.

010-6655-0000.
