Sarasota Opera Hosts “LGBT Night at the Opera” at the performance of Mascagni’s Cavalleria rusticana and Leconcavallo’s Pagliacci on March 12. This is Sarasota Opera's first special event for members of the LGBT community. The event begins with a wine and cheese mix and mingle hosted by Sarasota Opera's Artistic Administrator Greg Trupiano.
Attendees will then move into the Sarasota Opera House for a performance of the double-bill of Cavalleria rusticana by Pietro Mascagni and Pagliacci by Ruggero Leoncavallo. These two one-act operas portray peasant life in southern Italy. The raw emotions of works are depicted in some of opera’s most passionate and popular music including the famous tenor aria “Vesti la giubba.”
A special discounted ticket price of $75 seat includes the wine and cheese reception and an orchestra seat for the opera.
Tickets and more information are available by calling the box office at (941) 366-8450, ext. 1 and mentioning LGBT night. Tickets may also be purchased online using promotion code LGBTOpera.
