Join us for a fun, accessible $50 VIP behind-the-scenes experience, pre-opera reception and performance of the legendary opera, “Daughter of the Regiment” at Opera Colorado as we kick off our “Culturally Curious” series with deeply discounted tickets!

WHEN: Sunday, November 17 @ 12pm (program begins), 2pm (opera begins)

WHERE: The majestic Ellie Caulkins Opera House // 1385 Curtis Street // Denver, CO 80204

WHAT: An opportunity to experience the magic of opera featuring a behind-the-scenes tour watching the crew do a complete scene-reset and Q&A with the Director of Production and Technical Director about all things stagecraft. We will have a private reception featuring complementary salty snacks and a cash bar and then great tickets for the performance of “Daughter of the Regiment,” which follows Marie, the spirited girl who grows up among soldiers and is forced to choose between the love of her military family and the handsome young man who has stolen her heart. Opera Colorado’s lively rendition of this classic features dazzling vocal performances and the Opera Colorado debut of RuPaul’s Drag Race star Monét X Change in a special cameo appearance!

WHY: Because Cornellians are “Culturally Curious,” and we want to create opportunities to gather and connect around the tremendous cultural amenities that Colorado offers.

COST: $50.00**
