The Metropolitan Opera

Terence Blanchard’s stirring drama returns to the airwaves, with bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green starring as Charles, a young man faced with a fateful decision. Soprano Latonia Moore reprises her heartbreaking portrayal as Charles’s mother, Billie, with rising soprano Brittany Renee doing triple duty as Charles’s love interest, Greta, and the embodiments of Loneliness and Destiny. Evan Rogister conducts Blanchard’s score, which powerfully melds opera and jazz.

Opera broadcasts begin at 1 p.m. on Blue Lake Public Radio. Click here for details about the 2023-24 Robert K. Johnson Foundation-Metropolitan Opera International Radio Network schedule.

Shakespeare in The Rose

The Pigeon Creek Shakespeare Company returns to The Rose in June with A Midsummer Night’s Dream!

The uproarious, magic-filled tale follows what happens when humans and fairies meet in the mysterious wood outside of Athens. Pigeon Creek performed the play in 2012 for their first visit to The Rose and are thrilled to bring it back. A Midsummer Night’s Dream will delight audiences of all ages.
