The Opera Locos comes to the Wortham Center for Performing Arts in Asheville on Sunday, April 3. With celebrated performances and rave reviews in over 300 cities throughout Europe, Asia, and Latin America, the performance was awarded the Best Musical at the Max Awards for the Performing Arts in 2019.
Five eccentric opera singers take the stage for an unforgettable (and unexpectedly hilarious) evening of physical comedy and repertoire from the greatest composers of their genre. Taking some of the most well-known operatic hits—music from The Magic Flute, The Barber of Seville, La Traviata, Turandot and more—and combining them with a bit of clownery and well-known pop classics.
Throughout the performance, this eclectic ensemble reveals their hidden passions, personalities and desires, many of which bring about unpredictable and often side-splitting consequences. This fresh and original take on opera brings a new perspective to the art form, while, at the same time, maintaining the international high standards for technique and artistic discipline.
