The  overall performance in the opera in terms of the lighting, the  orchestra, the staging and the singing was awesome. Since “Una furtiva  lagrima” is the signature aria in the show; all the expectations were  attached to it and Lomeli really comes up to the expectations as the  love struck Nemorino. Moreover the set designing, the costuming, the performance of the supporting roles was amazingly great. The overall energy of the production is simply superb. It is one of the operas by Donizetti which is commonly performed today because it can be contemporized and performed at any place and any time without altering its effectiveness. In the New York City Opera production, Jonathan Miller’s vision for the show was to transport the drama from a sleepy Italian town to an American diner in a dustbowl during the 1950s. On this set, neon red of the Adina’s Diner sign glows against a backdrop of desert terrain and a robin-egg-blue sky. Visually, a striking and engaging concept overall and well executed. The conceptual theme underscoring Elixir’s entertainment value is showcasing Donizetti's score which is really a winning combination, and New York City Opera's interpretation fired on cylinders for most of the afternoon.
