Puget Sound Concert Opera's production of Verdi's IL TROVATORE at the Benefit Players Theater on January 12th at 2:00 pm only. As with all Benefit Players performances, admission is by donation.
This is a new opera company based in Seattle who will be coming to San Juan Island as part of their performance tour this January. We fully expect the performance to "sell" out (admission is by donation) - free Seattle-quality opera on San Juan Island is a never-before-seen occurrence, as you know!
Puget Sound Concert Opera proudly presents a concert performance of Verdi's Il Trovatore with some of the Pacific Northwest's premier performers, including Friday Harbor soprano Corinne Stevens (San Juan Singers concert soloist, opera singer with Skagit Opera & San Juan Performing Arts Society)!
Come for an unforgettable evening of Verdi's masterpiece including the audience favorites: "Anvil Chorus", thrilling tenor aria " Di quella pira" and Leonora's show-stopping duet with Inez "Tacea la Notte". Cast includes David Barela, Robert W. Corl, Brandon Higa, Ralph Wells, Sharon Karsner, Corinne Stevens, Regina Thomas and coach & pianist Jay Rozendaal of Seattle Opera.
Performance at the San Juan Benefit Players Theater, Saturday January 12th at 2:00PM - one show only!
