University of Kentucky Opera Theatre Offers Online Options in Lieu of GRAND NIGHT Performance

The University of Kentucky Opera Theatre has canceled its June production of "It's a Grand Night for Singing!" due to the current health crisis. However, the company is offering at-home options for patrons to enjoy.

In addition, the company is sharing clips from recent opera productions for audiences at home. Clips from the following operas are available on YouTube:

• "Gianni Schicchi" and "Suor Angelica" (2019);
• "Madama Butterfly" (2019);
• "The Barber of Seville" (2017);
• "La Traviata" (2017); and
• "Carmen" (2007).
