Yes! I did this opera in English when I was in undergrad. We used Donald
Pippin's Pocket Opera translation, which they kindly allowed us to use at a
very minimal charge because we were an educational institution. You can
find them at www.pocketopera.org, or email them at info-at-pocketopera.org.

Good luck and Merry Christmas!
