Il trovatore (Theatre)	comment	The Troubadour (Il trovatore, in the original Italian) is an opera by Giuseppe Verdi. It's got your standard opera plot: the tenor and baritone fight over the soprano while the magical gypsy mezzo-soprano plans revenge. Like many operas, it ends tragically.Classic film buffs might recognize it from The Marx Brothers' A Night at the Opera as the Brothers throw it into total chaos. The Anvil Chorus, which opens the second act, is also extremely well-known, and has been parodied at least since The Pirates of Penzance (which came out less than thirty years after the opera itself).

Later, she ended up raising the Count's brother as her own son, just so that years later she can either get him to kill the Count in a swordfight or trick the Count into killing his own brother.

She's in love with a troubadour? He's a soldier of the enemy? Kill him on the spot! She wants to enter a convent since she believes her lover is dead? Invade the place and get her back by force! However, he isn't the one to suggest that Leonora marry him to save Manrico - he keeps sending her away. And he seems intent on following through with their bargain until she dies before marrying him.

Il trovatore (Theatre) / int_da1c8191	comment	Writers Cannot Do Math: According to the Count Di Luna, his younger brother disappeared fifteen years ago. This logically means that Manrico should be fifteen or sixteen. But the problem is that by this time, Azucena is supposed to be an old woman, and she had a baby boy at the time of the brother's disappearance. Taking this into account, it's highly unlikely that any woman would go from childbearing age to old age in only fifteen years.
