Gianni Schicchi presented by Sin City Opera & Cockroach Theatre Company

Sin City Opera with Cockroach Theatre Company present an updated, inter-active version of this beloved, family feud, presented in a combination of English & Italian.

The comic opera is based on an incident mentioned in Dante's Divine Comedy. The work is the third and final part of Puccini's Il trittico (The Triptych), three one-act operas with contrasting themes, originally written to be presented together. Although it continues to be performed with one or both of the other trittico operas, Gianni Schicchi is now more frequently staged alone. The aria "O mio babbino caro" is one of Puccini's best known, and one of the most popular arias in opera. Sin City Opera’s presentation of the one-act opera will be extended with additional family intrigue as you get an in-depth glance at the characters that make up the tale.

Small Mouth Sounds at A Public Fit

A Public Fit theatre company presents Small Mouth Sounds, a play by Bess Wohl.

In the overwhelming quiet of the woods, six runaways from city life embark on a silent retreat. As these strangers confront internal demons both profound and absurd, their vows of silence collide with the achingly human need to connect. Filled with awkward humor, this strange and compassionate new play asks how we address life’s biggest questions when words fail us?
