'Ham 'n Eggs'
Operas Sef
For Saturday
“Cavalleria Rusticana” and “I
Pagliacci,” the twins of grand op
era to be presented at 8 Saturday
night in McArthur court, have been
nicknamed “ham and eggs” by the
music world.
The two operas have become a
perennial double bill. Abounding in
familiar melodies, they are among
the most popular operatic produc
tions in America.
Both deal with the lives, loves,
and deaths of simple Italian peas
ants. Both were presented nearly 60
years ago by the same company.
Sicilian Love Story
“Cavalleria Rusticana” is a one
act melodrama by G. Targioni-Toz
zetti and G. Menasei set to music by
Pietro Mascagni.
It is the story of the Sicilian
peasant girl Santuzza, who be
comes the mistress of a soldier who
returns to his village and finds Lo
la, his sweetheart, married to
someone else.
Marguerite Lamb will sing the
part of Santuzza. Turiddu, the ex
soldier, will be played by Jon Crain.
Margaret Roggero will play Uucia,
his mother. Frank Cappelli will
sing the role of Alfio, the teamster.
Grace Hoffman will portray Lola.
“The Players”
“I Pagliacci”—translated “The
Players”—is a two act drama by
Ruggiero Leoncavallo. The plot is
based on a tragedy within a travel
ing troupe of players.
Canio, chief of the comedy
troupe, discovers that his wife,
Nciiiin, has been unfaithful to him.
When Nedda refuses to tell the
name of her lover, Silvio, Canio
plans his revenge a performance
based on the actual circumstan
ces.
Tragic Ending
During the “comedy,” Canio sud
denly stops acting and rushes at
Nedda demanding the name of her
lover. Frightened, Nedda calls to
Silvio as Canio thrusts his dagger
through her breast.
Silvio hurries to the stage, where
he too is stabbed. Canio turns to
the village audience and announ
ces “The comedy is ended.”
So is the opera.
Cast Listed
Ernest McChesney will play Ca
nio; Constanza Pillori, his wife
Nedda; Richard Torigi, Tonio;

'Perkins, Silvio.
The production will be directed
by Paul Breisach. Stage director
will be Desire Defrere.
Sponsored by the Civic Music As
