Join Opera on the Spot for cabaret-style performances of two one-act operas, Hand of Bridge (Barber) and The Old Maid and the Thief (Menotti). In both of these quirky and lesser-known works, appearances can be deceiving: an otherwise ordinary hand of bridge becomes slowly fraught with desire, and the niceties of small talk give way to feelings of resentment and desperation. Deal yourself in, and join us for an immersive evening of operatic antics!
We will be holding two performances, one at the Center for New Music and the other at Italian Restaurant, Caffe Delle Stelle. You may purchase your tickets here, on eventbirte for the Caffe Delle Stelle performance, or if you would like to purchase tickets for The Center for New Music performance, please visit this site; http://centerfornewmusic.com/calendar/opera-on-the-spot-a-hand-of-bridge-the-old-maid-and-the-thief/
Opera on the Spot is an operatic performance troupe performing in and around the Bay Area. We are a talented group of young, classically trained singers embarking on a professional career in Opera. With no set venue, we choose less conventional places for performances, including bars, restaurants, and community spaces.
Performers: Sergey Khalikulov (baritone), Kevin Gino (tenor), Jordan Amann (soprano), Claire MacKenzie (mezzo-soprano), Emily Thebaut, Aisha Campbell (soprano), Emma Lacenski (mezzo-soprano) and Naomi Stine (pianist)
