Cedar Rapids Opera Theatre performs “Speed Dating Tonight!” a new comic opera.
Composed by Michael Ching, who coincidentally recently moved to Ames, Iowa, it’s a series of vignettes set against the backdrop of… you guessed it, speed dating. Stage director Marina Bergenstock says Ching also worked with the production on some changes that make this a truly original show.
June 15-17 at the Peggy Whitworth Amphitheater at Brucemore. Tickets at www.brucemore.org. Or you can also visit Cedar Rapids Opera Theatre at www.cr-opera.org.
