Rigoletto, the hated and feared courtyard jester at the court of Mantua, has tried everything to keep the existence of his beloved daughter secret from the womanising Duke and the cynical court society. But to no avail: Gilda has fallen in love with the Duke.

So, at the beginning of the third act, Rigoletto sees only one way out: to confront his daughter with the Duke's erotic excesses.
At the end of the third act, Rigoletto will have lost everything, and only the Duke's ‘La donna è mobile’ echoes through the night.
- 45 minutes / No interval
