Seattle Opera Young Artists Double Bill:
Trouble in Tahiti and Rita
Welcomed by Badgley Phelps and
Bell Investment Counsel

November 3, 2007 7:30 pm

The Seattle Opera Young Artists return to the PAC of Wenatchee for a double-bill performance presented in partnership with Wenatchee Opera Guild. These talented singers were selected through national auditions and will study with Seattle Opera during its 2007/08 season.

Trouble in Tahiti
Perhaps the greatest American opera yet written, Leonard Bernstein’s ironic masterpiece concerns a typical suburban American couple who can’t figure out why their life isn’t as perfect as what they see in the movies and commercials all around them. Bernstein mixed together popular and classical music, comedy and tragedy, words and music to create this indictment of the American dream back in 1953, but it’s every bit as powerful and relevant today.

Rita
A startlingly modern take on marriage, this charming, rarely-performed comic opera by Gaetano Donizetti concerns Rita, a lady innkeeper with two husbands—neither of whom want her! Donizetti wrote this charming comedy in the tradition of Italian comic operas like The Barber of Seville.

Approx. 110 minutes with one 15 minute intermission.

Romeo & Juliet
Presented in partnership with Seattle Shakespeare Company
March 7, 2008 7:30 pm

Five actors play multiple roles as the tragedy of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet unfolds before your eyes. Directed by Seattle Shakespeare Company's Artistic Director Stephanie Shine, this classic tale of love and loss serves as the perfect introduction to Shakespeare.

Approx. 90 minutes plus one 15 minute intermission.
