Mozart's opera Don Giovanni showcases the Alpha Male at the top of his form – until he meets his downfall! An unapologetic hedonist, Don Giovanni inspires both fascination and revulsion in those around him with his charming but totally unprincipled behaviour.
The opera begins with Leporello, Don Giovanni’s servant, standing guard while his master pursues yet another seduction and lamenting all he must endure in his service. Donna Anna appears, struggling with Don Giovanni. Her father, the Commendatore, comes to her rescue but is killed in a sword fight with Don Giovanni, who escapes with Leporello. Donna Anna, who has left to get help, returns with her fiancé, Ottavio, to find her father murdered.
Later, Donna Elvira arrives, searching for Don Giovanni, who has abandoned her. Leporello recounts his master's numerous conquests in an attempt to discourage her. Masetto and Zerlina then appear, happily anticipating their approaching wedding. Don Giovanni is entranced by Zerlina and orders Leporello to distract Masetto so the he can have his way with Zerlina. Donna Elvira thwarts the seduction and takes Zerlina away. Meanwhile, Donna Anna recognizes Don Giovanni as her attacker and orders Ottavio to avenge her father’s murder.
Elvira, Anna, and Ottavio plot plan to trap Don Giovanni at a ball that evening. During the ball, he lures Zerlina away. Her screams alert the three plotters who confront Don Giovanni, but he escapes once again.
Intent on the conquest of Donna Elvira’s maid, Don Giovanni trades clothes with Leporello, who lures Donna Elvira from her house with promises of reconciliation. The disguised Don Giovanni encounters and outwits Masetto and his friends who are seeking Zerlina’s seducer, wounding Masetto in the process. Donna Anna, Don Ottavio, Zerlina and Masetto come upon Elvira and Leporello, who reveals his true identity and flees.
Don Ottavio realises that Don Giovanni is indeed the Commendatore’s killer. Donna Anna affirms her love for her fiancé , but she cannot commit to a life with him until her father's murder is avenged. Donna Elvira admits she still loves Don Giovanni despite all he has done.
Leporello and Don Giovanni are hiding in the cemetery where they see the Commendatore’s tomb and jokingly ask his statue to dinner. To their amazement, the statue accepts. Later that evening, the statue knocks on Don Giovanni’s door and summons him to hell. He is defiant to the last, but the opera ends with the others reflecting on the dire consequences of his immoral life.
