2016 Dec 6

The Opera Workshop at Eastern Connecticut State University presented "From the Sublime to the Ridiculous," its end-of-semester concert, on Dec. 3 in the Fine Arts Instructional Center (FAIC) Concert Hall.

Scott Butler '17 of Salem was one of the students who performed in the concert. Butler majors in Music and Theatre.

Featuring scenes from the operettas of Bernstein, Strauss, Gilbert and Sullivan, the Opera Workshop provided a family-friendly afternoon of operatic performance.

The Opera Workshop is a course designed to offer students hands-on experience in stage movement, character development and scene study. Students develop these skills while exploring repertoire from opera, operetta and musical theater.
