Beach United Church is excited to welcome back Opera Revueon Saturday, April 19th at 4:30pm.
Opera Revue began with the question “Why does opera get such a bad rap?”. Founder and lead Soprano, Danie Friesen, came up with several answers: It’s expensive. You have to dress up. It’s snobby. You can’t drink, except during intermission. You can’t talk. It’s snobby. You can’t get up and move around. And it’s snobby. So, that’s what Opera Revue has set out to change. Their shows are a great way to introduce opera to people who have never seen it before, as well as a new way for opera lovers to enjoy it.
Suggested minimum price is $15 – you may reserve your tickets online, or pay in person the day of the concert. We look forward to seeing you there!
