We are going backstage again this summer as we continue our Backstage Pass Luncheon Concert Series! 

First, we will hear from our director who will share a little about the opera and their vision for the production, and then you will get to experience the voices of our stellar casts before anyone else! Artists will present both works from the upcoming operas as well as other songs and arias after a delicious box lunch provided by Pure Catering.

After the performance guests who’d like a sneak peek of the performance space with ongoing set building and painting will be invited on a short backstage tour. Come and join us Tuesdays at noon to help us raise funds for our upcoming season and make this new effort a success.
