What is La traviata about?

Driven by her deep desire for love, Violetta makes a courageous choice to abandon a life filled with glamour, style, and social standing. However, the elite and fashionable upper-class society, feeling rejected, deems their relationship unsuitable. 

The love shared between Alfredo and Violetta becomes a threat, casting a shadow of shame upon his family. In a desperate attempt to protect his family's reputation, Alfredo's father directly implores Violetta to let go of her only chance at happiness. Overwhelmed by the weight of her decision, Violetta succumbs and, tragically, her act of self-sacrifice exacts the highest toll imaginable.
