Adapted from Ettore Scola’s 1981 film Passione d’Amore, Passion is one of Stephen Sondheim’s most emotional works. Intimate, raw, erotic and dark, it explores universal, yet often unspoken, truths.
At a remote military outpost in 1863 Italy, a handsome army captain, Giorgio, separated from his beautiful – but married – mistress, Clara, is forced to re-evaluate his beliefs about love when he becomes the object of the obsessive, unrelenting passions of Fosca, his Colonel’s plain, sickly cousin.
