L'Italiana in Londra was Domenico Cimarosa's first international triumph, thrilling audiences all over Europe after its premiere in 1778. However, it later became eclipsed by the even bigger success of Il matrimonio segreto, and has become a rarity on stage today. Set in a London hotel, this cheerful Intermezzo in musica has cleverly crafted arias, duets and ensembles that drive the plot along, the story being one of thwarted love, quarrels, and misundertandings. L'Italiana in Londra has been summed up by the director R.B. Schlather as 'incredibly charming and sophisticated... demanding, dark, dirty and very funny ... an impeccable rom-com.'
