Opera Memphis Needs You: Pick Places For Pop-Up Opera Performances
Opera Memphis Needs You: Pick Places For Pop-Up Opera Performances
(Can you say that headline three times fast?)
Opera Memphis hosts one of my favorite Memphis events every year in September: 30 Days of Opera. And we need to your help to make 2018 the best year ever.
How can you help? Tell us where Opera Memphis should pop-up this year. Cool locations or events are great suggestions, anywhere they can draw a crowd with an operatic performance. Read on for details.
If you've missed it in the past, 30 Days of Opera is a very Memphis way to enjoy (or get to know) our city's opera company. Singers pop-up around town - sometimes several different times a day, or several places at once - and treat passersby to a short performance. There's usually at least one pop-up a day, from September 1 - September 30.
They already have 30 Days of Opera shows planned at Germantown Festival (Sept. 8), Cooper Young Fest (Sept. 15), South Main Trolley Night (Sept. 28), plus a special performance at the Levitt Shell on September 23. Check out the schedule so far here.
Here's what we need from you: leave me a comment with a suggestion for a unique place or event where the Opera Memphis team can pop-up this year. If they can't do it this year, maybe next year.
What's a cool place where a crowd will gather to witness 3o Days of Opera?
Be sure to follow them online for info on where you can see opera (for free!) this September.
Don't forget to check out Opera Memphis' 2018 - 2019 Season and the Midtown Opera Festival every April. More events here.
