One of Mozart's greatest operas is about Don Juan, the serial seducer who also inspired one of Byron's greatest epic poems. Opera Tampa brings a tour of Don Giovanni to Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center this weekend. The production by Mozart Festival Opera has a cast led by baritone Vytautas Juozapaitis as the Don along with the Sofia Symphony Orchestra and Chorus. This is the sister company of Teatro Lirico D'Europa, which stages Rigoletto at Ruth Eckerd Hall on March 24. Don Giovanni has performances at 8 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday at TBPAC's Morsani Hall. $29.50-$89.50, with a limited number of TBPAC 20th anniversary tickets for $20.
