Memories and Wishes

April 19, 2008 - Tonight is the final performance of our 10th anniversary season. It has been an amazing year filled with many wonderful moments from the eery incantation scene at the end of Alcina's second act to the sublimity of the final hymn in Tobias and the Angel to the utter whackiness of the hip-hop cancan in Orpheus in the Underworld. As this blog posts, arrangements are already well under way for the inaugural season of our second decade. At this gateway, I invite our supporters to share a favorite moment from the first ten years of OV and/or a wish for the next ten years. And I extend my heartfelt thanks to all the fantastic people (singers, designers, dancers, crew, volunteers, board members, donors, subscribers, etc.) who have gotten us this far. We truly couldn't have done it without each and everyone of you.

See you at the opera! - John Bowen

PS. If you're in need of one more OV fix before the 2008-2009 season begins, join us for our fun and funky fundraiser OV11 on May 17th from 8-11.
