The Merry Widow
In Paris, the Pontevedrian embassy faces a crisis: the wealthy widow Hanna Glawari must marry a countryman to keep her fortune from leaving the impoverished nation. The ambassador's plan involves Count Danilo, Hanna's former lover, who is reluctant to pursue her for her money. As old feelings resurface amidst social maneuvering and mistaken identities, the fate of Pontevedro hangs in the balance.
