Midsummer Operatic Flamenco Party!

Two chances to celebrate with us and catch a glimpse of exciting works in progress for Mixed Precipitation.

RSVP to the Party!

Mixed Precipitation is presenting a mini pop-up opera performance in June. This new work-in-progress features Baritone Mark Billy and a suite of tunes inspired by Don Quixote, including music by Maurice Ravel and Ruperto Chapí y Lorente.

We are collaborating with choreographer Colette Illarde and dancer Amanda Dlouhy of Zorongo Flamenco. Instrumentals Ben Abrahamson on guitar and Jason Kornelis on cello mix art song and Spanish Zarzuela. Performers Maje Adams, Barbara Berlovitz, Ariel Donahue, Jada Windom, and the Zorongo Student Performance Company bring the stories and poetry to life.

Three chances to catch us in action!

  • Saturday, June 7th at 10 am and 11:30 am at the Midtown Farmers Market
  • Wednesday, June 11th at the Historic Coliseum Building (2708 East Lake Street)

Midsummer Celebration June 11th

Come celebrate 17 years of outdoor opera and theatrical experiments! We’ll present out mini-opera, Windmills on Lake Street, outdoors at 7:00, then move inside for food, drinks, and music.

Mixed Precipitation artists offer musical updates of recent projects, including selections from Puccini’s La Fanciulla del West and Carmen as a true crime saga, and more flamenco dance!

PLOT TWIST: This event was planned for Du Nord Cocktail Room, which will close on May 31st. We are working with the building management to hold it in another part of the Historic Coliseum Building (2708 East Lake Street). Stay tuned for updates!

Mixed Precipitation will provide music and tasty bites for this event. Bring cash and other forms of payment for beverages.

A $20 contribution per person is encouraged for this event. Give more as you’re able!

These performances are supported by Lake Street Lift, a program funded by Lake Street Council and the Graves Foundation. We’re grateful to celebrate and share art in this wonderful neighborhood.
