Sixteen ¾¨Ó㴫ý students will present the operetta, "Die Fledermaus," which means "The Bat," Sunday and Monday, Nov. 6-7 at 3 p.m. in Orr Auditorium.
The Monday performance is sponsored by the New Wilmington Rotary in conjunction with The Hoyt Foundation to promote opera to area high schools.
"This is a story of delicious mischief in old Vienna that features a musical score filled with wonderful waltzes by Johann Strauss," said Dr. Anne Bentz, assistant professor of music at ¾¨Ó㴫ý. "There will be music to sway and tap your foot to, gorgeous singing, and a story line full of entertainment comedy. This is a great way to see what wonderful talent we have at ¾¨Ó㴫ý and to get your feet wet in the opera scene."
The event is free and open to the public. Contact Bentz at (724) 946-6045 or e-mail bentzah@westminster.edu for more information.
