A Night of American Opera

A Night of American Opera
Performed in English.
American composers have written some of the most stirring, heart wrenching and beautiful works in opera. Join us as we perform scenes from some of Americas most well known and celebrated composers. With moments that range from the hilariously absurd to deep heartbreak to undying love, this performance is a fantastic sampling of opera for all music lovers.

Run time is approx. 2 hours with one 15 min intermission. Concessions will be sold during intermission, and donations are happily accepted!
