The next opera will be Carmen and the student performance/final dress rehearsal will be on Tuesday, February 14th – what a wonderful way to celebrate Valentine’s Day!! Bizet's Carmen is one of my favourite operas and also one of the most well-known and frequently performed operas in the world. If you’ve never been to the opera, but have thought about “trying it out”, this is the one to go to! You’ll hear the music in movies, commercials, etc. for the rest of your life J
Tickets are $10.00 for Students and $15.00 for
Faculty/Staff (tickets 2 nights later are over $100!)
If I get the response that I think I’ll get for Carmen (last year for La Bohème, another opera favourite, we had 90 students and 15 faculty and staff attend!), I plan to hire a bus to take students. The approximate cost for the bus per student will be $8, so the total cost for the evening will be $18. Please pay me by Monday, January 16th.
If you haven’t gone to the opera before due to the cost, please come see me because I will do whatever I can to get every student there that would like to go!
Please email me as soon as possible if you’d like to go (or you can sign up in the caf).
