Manon Lescaut (2x4)


:

It's "Co-Dependency, the Musical !" and it was Puccini's first big hit. Manon can't decide between love or money, so she tries to keep both, and ends up with neither. When her wealthy and aristocratic benefactor finds her in bed - with younger Chevalier des Grieux - she is arrested and deported to America. Hot-headed and desperate, the Chevalier pursues her. Notable aria in Act 3 sums it all up: "Pazzo son!" (translation: "Look at me, I'm crazy...") No arguments here.
