A screening of the Metropolitan Opera’s production of Gaetano Donizetti’s comic opera La fille du régiment (The Daughter of the Regiment) will take place at St James Cavalier Cinema, Valletta, tomorrow at 7pm.

This frothy comedy mixes humour with a rush of buoyant melody and notorious vocal challenges. The story concerns a young orphan girl raised by an army regiment as their mascot, and begins at the moment of her first stirrings of love. Complications (and comedy) ensue when her true identity is discovered.

The action is startlingly simple and unencumbered by intricate subplots, allowing the full charm of the characters and their virtuosic music to come across in an uninhibited way.
