7:30 pmOpera: A Midsummer Night's Dream KIMBALL RECITAL HALL
UNL Opera presents Benjamin Britten’s wonderful interpretation of the Shakespeare classic, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Audiences will delight at this contemporary yet accessible, tuneful adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic fantasy, replete with enchanted woods, fairies, a wedding party, and a rustic weaver who’s turned into a donkey! Unlike so many of Britten’s contemporaries, his music is tonal and widely approachable to the general musical audience. Celebrated music critic Terry Teachout put it this way, “For those Mozart-loving opera buffs who long ago wrote off ‘contemporary opera’ as a lumpy, inedible stew of high-voltage dissonance and hair-tearing angst, the lucidity and charm of A Midsummer Night’s Dream are likely to come as an agreeable shock.” Don’t miss this stellar, all-student production under the direction of Dr. William Shomos, UNL Director of Opera. Dr. Tyler Goodrich White will conduct the UNL Philharmonia. You are sure to be enchanted! Tickets: Adults $20, student/senior $10. Available thru the Lied Center box office, 402/472-4747 or 1-800/432-3231.
