2010-11 Season Overview

Macbeth

Vaulting ambition, bloody betrayal, murder most foul — it's all here as mighty Verdi synthesizes the Bard's greatest moments, bringing laser-like focus to every character's soul with searing, powerful music.

Carmen

What could make a man cheat on his fiancée, drive his mother to tears, and ditch a good job? One woman — Carmen! She's the sex-bomb, gypsy seductress who loves them and leaves them — tossing egos and hearts in the dust.

A Midsummer Night's Dream

Britten's score literally shimmers and breathes — capturing perfectly the ethos of an enchanted forest where magical things can and do happen (with a few dark undertones to keep things interesting)!

A Masked Ball

The king is in love with his best friend's wife — and she's in love with him. Desperate to extinguish her ardor, she turns to a sorceress for help — but too late! The secret's out and a devastated husband takes his revenge!

The Mikado

There's too much flirting going on in the town of Titipu — and it's against the law! So the Mikado (emperor of all) decrees that heads must roll.

The Girl of the Golden West

A handsome outlaw in disguise! The sheriff in hot pursuit! And a garter-snapping, pistol-packing, poker-playing heroine who knows when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em to save the man she loves.

Lohengrin

A young noblewoman, falsely accused of murdering her brother, dreams of being rescued — and miraculously, her knight in shining armor appears. He is Lohengrin, who pledges to marry her and save her homeland from invaders. But she must love him unconditionally, and never ask his name or origin. Tall order — especially with two forces of evil plotting against her.

Hercules

This emotional shocker was inspired by a Greek tragedy written more than 2,500 years ago...and director Peter Sellars blows the lid off any idea that it isn't piercingly relevant today!
