Die Fledermaus will open Opera Circle's 15th anniversary season on October 8 & 10, 2010, at Bohemian National Hall, a miniature opera house near Prague. The program at Ingenuity is a glimpse into that fully staged production, complete with Opera Circle Orchestra under the baton of Robert Cronquist. Scott Skiba's stage directions will take us back into 19th-century Vienna. Opera Circle's Jacek Sobieski, former Music Director of the magnificent National Theater in Warsaw, Poland, will make sure that the Central European style of music and operetta invades the minds and hearts of many in Cleveland. Don't miss out on the Ingenuity excerpts and season's opening celebration. www.operacircle.org
