The Telephone

OPERA DEL WEST presents THE ELIXIR OF LOVE

Gaetano Donizetti’s joyous masterpiece about a magic love potion, and the destiny of a love triangle involving a lovable bumpkin, a dashing sergeant and the bewitching town flirt. Opera del West combines beautiful singing with a pastoral setting as Nemorino tries almost anything to create his happy ending with Adina. Featuring effervescent Italian melodies (with English subtitles) and plenty of bel canto vocal fireworks. Stage direction by Eve Summer, music direction by Eve Budnick.

Opera del West is a young opera company located in Metrowest Boston. In our first summer, we performed a series of popular scenes from a number of well known operas at the Center for Arts in Natick.

***********************************

This past summer, we produced our most ambitious opera yet: Englebert Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel. Complete with Children’s Choir, a Ballet Troupe, and lots of glitter (that we are still cleaning up) Hansel and Gretel appealed to young and old alike.

In the summer of 2007 we performed two one-act operas, Gianni Schicchi and A Game of Chance, again at the Center for Arts in Natick. Once again, we had a wonderful response from opera lovers across the region.
