Beautiful and popular Adina is completely out of Nemorino’s league. Shy and sincere but desperate to catch her eye, the arrival of the smooth-talking Doctor Dulcamara and his apparently miraculous concoctions provides the perfect opportunity to change his fate. But Nemorino soon discovers that love is rarely straightforward, and that perhaps his ‘Elixir’ is just wine after all…
