By Bridget Stucker 'Hey, Carmen, you're so fine...!' This week, while the Festival Theater in Edinburgh indulges the opera lover with the classic bel canto opera, Norma, a group of young, singing-actors give opera a facelift over at Spotlites International.

The 69th annual Edinburgh Fringe Festival will begin next week in Scotland. Opening up the Spotlites International Theatre in their new location at the corner of Hanover Street in the beautiful building of the Royal Society of Edinburgh is a new musical called, Carmen High. Carmen High is conceived and directed by Stephanie Vlahos, based on the Bizet opera, Carmen. Carmen High is a theatrical mash up of opera, hip hop, original songs, and classical music that reinvents the opera of Carmen as the real American high school experience told through the authentic voices of gifted teenage performers.

Stable Cable Lab Co.'s production of "Live from the Surface Of the Moon" is certainly far out like the radical 1960s decade in which it takes place…but not necessarily in a good way. Written and directed by Max Baker, this new play takes audiences to a blue-collar home in 1969 Cleveland, Ohio. In this moment, a bizarre cast of characters gathers to view the moon landing on television. Don (Ian Patrick Poake), an ice cream truck driver, and his extremely pregnant wife, Carol (Kate Garfield) have invited over their friends, the pseudo-feminist June (Breanna Foister), and her decidedly sexist, creepy husband Wendell (Brian Edelman). Carol's slightly senile father, Joe (Kevin Gilmartin) and the young, pitiful, and awkward Holly (Lisa Anderson) also join the party.

Stable Cable Lab Co. (Shariffa Ali and Vera Khodasevich, Producers) will present Live From the Surface of the Moon, a new play written and directed by Max Baker, tonight, April 2-11 at The Wild Project (195 East 3rd Street between Avenue A and B).
