LA Opera to Present HERCULES VS. VAMPIRES, 4/23-26

This spring, LA Opera presents one of the most offbeat works the company has ever offered: the Los Angeles premiere of Patrick Morganelli's ?Hercules vs. Vampires. A mashup of contemporary music and midcentury pop culture, Hercules vs. Vampires combines a new operatic score performed live in synch with a screening of the great Italian filmmaker Mario Bava's 1961 sword-and-sandal epic Ercole al centro della terra, best known to American audiences as Hercules in the Haunted World.
