We hear a symphony: Beyond the wealth of live music that brings us outdoors in the summer, we have top-notch theater and opera folks who like to get outside too. Charlottesville Opera launches an exciting run of shows with Broadway in the Park, which features some of musical theater’s leading voices. Jennifer DiNoia has played Elphaba in Wicked more than any other singer in the world, and Allison Semmes starred as Diana Ross in Motown: The Musical, and currently works with Stevie Wonder.
Friday 6/11 & Saturday 6/12, $15-20, 7pm. IX Art Park, 522 Second St. SE. charlottesvilleopera.org.
Free news is good news!
