When four sopranos arrive at the Pearly Gates, they are eager to join the Heavenly Choir. However, when St. Peter announces the need for only one new soprano in the choir, chaos ensues! This playful show twists stereotypes of opera into a fun, comic opera sure to thrill viewers of all ages.
Cedar Rapids Opera was founded in 1998 by Dr. Daniel Kleinknecht. It is one of two professional opera companies in the state of Iowa, performing 3-4 productions annually, including an elementary school outreach opera. Its nationally respected Young Artist Program was developed in 2002 to enhance the opera chorus with pre-professional singers and provide emerging artists with experience working alongside seasoned professionals. In 2022, the company established the Lift Every Voice: Artist in Residency Program which places teaching artists in high schools to work with underserved students.
The mission of Cedar Rapids Opera is to advance opera as a vital, living American art form and to develop the artists who create it, as well as the audience that appreciates and supports it.
This is a General Admission seated show held in the theater of CSPS Hall. Doors will open 1 hour before showtime.
