Looking for a dose of love, laughter, and a little bit of magic? Watch as Nemorino, a lovesick soldier, tries to win the heart of the beautiful Adina—who gently rejects his advances. Seeking some help from the smooth-talking Dr. Dulcamara and his so-called “love potion,” Nemorino stirs up a whole lot of jealousy, mischief, and maybe even a bit of real romance! This bubbly comedy, bursting with effervescent charm (and a splash of citrus inspiration), is the perfect recipe for a fun night out.
Sung in Italian with English supertitles.
