Set in the Basque Country, it’s a charming story of five colorful characters: Nemorino, a simple, sincere peasant; Adina, a beautiful, wealthy landowner; Belcore, a dashing, pompous sergeant; Dr. Dulcamara, a charlatan medicine man; and Gianetta, the village gossip. Nemorino loves Adina, who mocks his infatuation. When Sergeant Belcore arrives to court Adina, Nemorino finds a solution as Dr. Dulcamara comes to town peddling his potions.
