The aging Pasquale refuses to let his love-struck nephew Ernesto marry, and decides to get married himself. The only snag is that the woman he’s chosen as his bride-to-be, the fiery Norina, is secretly his nephew's beloved, which sets up a riotous clash between generations.

This new production marks the first appearance of Don Pasquale at the COC in 30 years. Making their company debut, the French-Canadian creative team of Renaud Doucet and André Barbe place this fizzy, feel-good comedy in 1960s Rome, topping it with Technicolor visuals and Pop Art aplomb.
