IL BARBIERE DI SIVIGLIA
BY GIOACHINO ROSSINI
AT THE HISTORIC
Il barbiere di Siviglia is the story of a barber in the city of Seville named Figaro who serves a count named Almaviva. The count is looking for love, but not from just anyone. He wants someone who cares for him not because of his title or money, but for him as a person, so he does the only logical thing… he pretends to be someone else and starts wooing the lovely Rosina under a false pretense! Disguises, sneaking around, and hilarity ensues, and leaves the audience smiling from ear to ear!
The opera will be presented in Italian with English Supertitles.
CAST: HEESEUNG CHAE, EDITH GROSSMAN, ALEX BOYD, AND JANESE PENTICO.
DIRECTED BY GREG ELDRIDGE, CONDUCTED BY KSENIA LELETKINA.
JULY 29THTH AND 31ST, &
AUGUST 4TH AND 6TH ONLY!

ORFEO ED EURIDICE
BY CHRISTOPH WILLIBALD GLUCK
Orfeo ed Euridice is an opera based on the classic Greek myth. Orpheus is promised that he may enter Hades and retrieve his wife, Euridice from death on one condition: he may not look back to see if she is there for the entire journey from the underworld back to the land of the living.

BREWERY RECITAL AT
Join us at Public Brewing downtown this summer for a Kenosha-made cold one and an adult-swim program of music performed by our visiting artists and fellows! You'll laugh, you'll cry, you might need to pee more than usual... But that won't be a problem in Public's trendy space and fantastic stage. We hope to see you there!

Check out our titles just below!

OUR FREE OFFERINGS
For the KOF, bringing excellent classical and operatic music to the greater Kenosha community is a serious mission. Opera 'Round K-Town is our program to bring performances to all kinds of Kenoshans wherever they are.
And now...to honor America...... Opera! The KOF will sing at a home game for our own Kenosha Kingfish! Look for us on the pitcher's mound July 9th!
We sing for and engage with the public on their weekend trip to the lovely Kenosha Harbor Market. While people came to get their fresh produce, they'll also find some fresh opera!
MEMORY AND ELDER CARE OUTREACH

It's not just kids that need to have art in their lives! KOF is doing outreach to memory and elder care facilities this May with repertoire from the classic music theater and classic opera repertoire folks might have heard on their Lanza or Caruso records!
