War rages on between Babylon and Jerusalem. Abigaille, daughter of the King of Babylon, ruthlessly plans to take down the kingdom, claim Nabucco's throne, and kill all the imprisoned Israelites. Not since Wagner's Ring cycle has Union Avenue Opera presented a show with such epic splendor. Experience some of Verdi's grandest orchestral and choral music ever written, including the soul-stirring "Va, pensiero" chorus.
