OperaCréole is a partner organization in celebration of New Orleans Opera's 75th Anniversary Season.
Their production of
Champion, an Opera in Jazz written by Grammy Award winning
Terence Blanchard
is 2 WEEKS Away!
March 9, and 11 at Mahalia Jackson Theater.
This is the first opera they have presented by a composer of African descent.
As a partner organization, OperaCréole has a code that would allow you to get a discount. BUT HURRY, it is SELLING OUT!
On opening night, I will be speaking at the Nuts and Bolts
presentation 30 minutes before curtain, and I have submitted an
article on the history of composers of African descent for their
program.
I have also joined the ensemble in
support of the principal cast that has come in from the Washington
National Opera production of Champion. Now that I have been in staging,
I can tell you that this is a genius level work, and I am having a
blast!
Also in the ensemble/chorus, that have been on OperaCréole 's roster, are:
Mark Anthony Thomas,
Kentrell Roberts,
Christian Patterson, and
Pamela Nions!
The discount code I was given for community partners is:
10% discount code (enter at check out, and doesn't have to be all caps): NOOPARTNERZ
