In February 2016, the
Toledo Opera will bring the Gershwins’ monumental
masterpiece, Porgy and Bess, to town. The classic American
folk opera, which first played on Broadway in 1935 and at
the Met in 1985, will arrive in the Glass City on February
11 for a Student Night and then again for performances on
Friday, February 12 and Sunday February 14.
On October 28, the Toledo
Opera board members in collaboration with Paul Hubbard
hosted a pre-performance event at Our Brothers Place
featuring local singer Karen Harris (Lady K) and a
performance by Bowling Green State University opera student
LeTara Lee.
