Why Not Complete Home Improvement
Chamber outing to Petite Opera!
For the Chamber’s next group theatre outing, let’s all go see Petite Opera’s original spooferetta, “Al Fresco – Life through Opera-Colored Glasses!” Petite Opera is professional opera right in our backyard.
Opera meets improvisation in this entertaining spoof.
Experience the comical adventures of our favorite lovable geek, Al Fresco, an Italian-American from Chicago, as he looks for love with modern-day versions of famous opera heroines. An original story and English lyrics set to Sullivan, Mozart, Puccini and others. Written by Petite Opera’s board members, who are also Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce members, this delightful operetta will have you laughing all night long as it pokes fun at some common—and not so common—characters from Chicago and its surrounding communities. It is fun and appropriate for all ages. Absolutely no knowledge of opera is necessary. No opera heroines will die as a result of this production, and you can leave your tiaras and tuxedos at home.
The nine performance dates:
Fridays May 6, 13, and 20 at 7:30 PM,
Saturdays May 7, 14, and 21at 7:30 PM,
Sundays May 8, 15 and 22 at 4:00 PM.
Performances at Mary Wilson House Beyer Auditorium, part of St Mary’s Episcopal Church campus, at 306 S Prospect Ave (at Crescent Ave).
Tickets prices are $25 for Adults, $22 for Seniors (age 62 and up), $15 for Students (K-college), and Kids age 5 and under get in free. Groups of 10 or more adults who purchase in one transaction for the same performance get a 20% discount over Adult ticket prices, so let’s gather a couple of groups at a minimum! Why not make a night of it?

Brian's photographs express the common drama found in five subjects; Altars/Spiritual Drama, Columns/Daily Drama, Graffiti/Subversive Drama, Museums/Cultural Drama, and Telephones/I.T. Drama.
