This fully-staged production is the culmination of student-led academic research that explored the mature themes* inherent in Mozart's adaptation of the classic Don Juan legend, and reexamined those themes in the context of modern collegiate life. Featuring full orchestra, the production aims to encourage thought and discussion about the nature of college life.
