Opera Workshop Performance: An Evening at the Opera
Fri. 23, 10:00 a.m. & 7:30 p.m.
The Duke Ellington Opera Workshop, now in its 7th year, will present on Friday, May 23 at 7:30, fully staged and costumed scenes from three operas: Lakme', Madame Butterfly, and Don Giovanni. Lakme', the story of tragic love between a British soldier and an exotic priestess in Colonial India, contains one of the most beautiful and familiar duets in all of opera. Madame Butterfly is also a tragedy of star-crossed love. Don Giovanni (or Don Juan, as he is known in similar legends) knows very little about true love, but a great deal about wine, women and song. Join us for a wonderful evening of great music and great drama!
