Join us for this evening of opera and musical theater highlights that will take you on a beautiful, funny, and wild roller coaster ride of musical emotion.Saturday, November 16, 2019 at 7:30 p.m.Belhaven University Center for the Performing Arts, 835 Riverside Drive, Jackson, MSNo other art form has as many stereotypes and caricatures as opera. We have all seen the comic portrayal of sopranos in armor and helmets with horns screaming at the top of their lungs. However, opera has another side, that of beautiful and dramatic arias that bring tears to your eyes no matter how many times you hear them. Such is the stuff of opera! Operas sister art form, musical theatre, contains the same breadth of emotion from tender moments of love and intimate joy to episodes of hilarious comedy and ferocious conflict. Starring the musical talents of:Susan Williams, soprano Alexis Davis-Hazell, mezzo-soprano Peter Lake, tenor Paul Houghtaling, baritone and director Kevin T. Chance, piano And the Mississippi Opera ChorusTickets are $30 in advance / $35 at the door. This project is supported in part by funding from the Mississippi Arts Commission, a state agency and in part, from the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
