2. Susannah

Susannah is an opera in two acts by the American composer Carlisle Floyd, who wrote the libretto and music while a member of the piano faculty at Florida State University. Floyd adapted the story from the Apocryphal tale of Susannah and the Elders, though the latter story has a more positive ending. The story focuses on 18-year-old Susannah Polk, an innocent girl who is targeted as a sinner in the small mountain town of New Hope Valley, in the Southern American state of Tennessee.

The Delaware Valley Opera is a member of Opera American and presents high quality professional performances. Carol Castel is the artistic and staging director for the company. Her directing career has included over 55 opera productions in the U.S., Canada and Europe. Opera can pull you into the story with the action, the music and the singing like nothing else. If you haven't seen a DVO production, treat yourself.

Susannah opens on Saturday August 24 at 7pm and Sunday August 25 at 2pm. The final performances are Saturday August 31 at 7pm and Sunday September 1 at 2pm.

The Delaware Valley Opera Center is located at 6692 St. Rte. 52, Lake Huntington, New York 12752-0124.
