Go Mad for Lucia!
Set in 17th-century Scotland
Despite long-standing family feuds, Lucia and Edgardo exchange vows of love before he leaves for Scotland, but Lucia’s brother Enrico tricks her into believing that Edgardo is untrue to her. Broken-hearted, she agrees to marry Enrico’s friend Arturo. The wedding is interrupted by the return of Edgardo, who, believing himself betrayed, denounces her. Her mind as well as her heart are broken, and she kills Arturo in their marriage chamber then horrifies the lingering guests by a display of madness before collapsing. After learning of Lucia’s tragic death, Edgardo takes his own life.
