Steal behind the scenes in our seventh annual free summer concert! Soprano Anna Singer, mezzo-soprano Hilerie Klein Rensi, tenor Robert Chafin, baritone Richard Lewis, and pianist Michael Borowitz perform scenes by Cy Coleman, Mozart, Offenbach, and Verdi about the backstage world of overwrought emotion and giant egos. Take a ringside seat for battles of wills and wits between producer and star, a poet and his lost loves, and more in scenes from Pagliacci, La Forza del Destino, The Tales of Hoffmann, and others.
