Duelling Divas - Opera With a Twist

February 25, 2010 - 7:30 p.m.

Baroness Vladka von Loudenstimme has had a long career on the opera stage but for how much longer is anyone's guess. She's got the pipes but she likes to soak them in booze whenever she can - as in during every performance. So she hires the younger Southern belle Gwendoline Josephine Bellevoix Bouvier, who fancies herself French and cultured, but who grew up in Boar Tush, LA, to sing for the audience so she can sprint off stage for a nip.

One pianist named Paige Turner, 18 costumes, a horned helmet, spear, light saber and a lotta Puccini later, the diva duet becomes a duel. The aim is laughter. That's the premise of Dueling Divas, a comedic entree into the world of grand opera.

The show will be presented on two nights, February 25, 2010 at 7:30 p.m. and again on February 26, 2010 at 7:30 p.m.  Click on the date of your choice to purchase a ticket.
