Lunchtime Theater: Phoenix Opera, Celebrating America

ABOUT THE PERFORMERS

Celebrate the 250th anniversary of America's independence with a medley of songs by some of the Phoenix Operas most impressive voices presenting Gershwin and other American Classics. Come sing along with your favorites.

Drawn from a repertoire of popular works from the late 18th through early 20th centuries, the Phoenix Opera productions are literally the favorite operas of all time! Founded in 2005 by Gail Dubinbaum and John Massaro, Phoenix Opera presented the elegant La Boheme in the 2007/2008 season, followed by the grandeur of Aida and the splendor of Tosca in the 2008/2009 season, and in the 2009/2010 season, the sizzling hot Carmen and the hauntingly romantic favorite, Madame Butterfly. The Phoenix Opera have been popular performers in the Arts HQ Gallery's Lunchtime Theater series for the past 10 years.
