Sopranos!

Soperanos! (More than just a pretty voice)

Sopranos! provides an entertaining, and musically fulfilling look into the world of opera. Professional singers Julia Chalfin and Anne Wieben along with pianist Karenn Presti open up the inner world of opera with a glimpse behind the scenes for an entertaining and informative view of what it truly means to be a soprano. The three musicians bring the stage to life with some of the most gorgeous and well-loved opera arias ever written. The show takes a self-effacing, hilarious view into what it means to be a soprano (and a soprano’s long-suffering pianist). By addressing what it is that turns sopranos into divas, the singers explore the different sides of sopranos, from the naive, hopelessly romantic heroine to the vengeful, manipulative villaness – both on and off the stage. Whether one is a huge opera fan or one can’t bear the genre, the show provides the audience a deeper understanding of classical music and explores the psychology of the prima donna. Interspersed with jokes, background information and a taste of what is really going on behind the well polished facade, Sopranos! is a unique experience that brings the beauty of high art to everyone in the audience.
