ABOUT THIS CONCERT

A dark, mysterious castle. A husband keeping secrets. Seven locked doors, each masking a blood-stained surprise. It may sound like the perfect setup for a horror movie, but it’s actually the starting point for one of the greatest operas of the 20th century, Duke Bluebeard’s Castle. Buckle up for an evening of chills, thrills, and astonishing theatrical power as the story unfolds before you. We’ll set the stage with musical highlights from other landmark operas of the 20th and 21st century.

What to Expect:

  • Prepare for suspense, chills, and psychological thrills with opera’s ultimate horror story
  • World-renowned singers bring the story to life
  • For those looking for an “Anti-Valentine’s” activity, look no further than Duke Bluebeard’s Castle. Sketchy husbands? Blood and gore? Check, check, and check.
