YOUTH OPERA CAMP AT MADISON COMBINES PERFORMANCE, BEHIND-SCENES
LOOK
An eight-week Youth Opera Camp for children nine to 14 years old –
offering participants a unique opportunity to perform as well as get
a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at Los Angeles Opera – will
be inaugurated Oct. 6 at SMC’s Madison campus.
The camp – scheduled from 9 a.m. to noon Saturdays – will
culminate in two performances Dec. 7 of a new opera, Friday Night
at Hodges’ Café, featuring students along with members
of L.A. Opera. Not only will students in the program prepare for the
performance, they will learn all the aspects of production, including
costumes, makeup and more. In addition, L.A. Opera professionals in
all aspects of production will be guest speakers at the camp.
The camp participants will also be guests at an L.A. Opera special
dress rehearsal performance.
The program is made possible, in part, by the Costen Children’s
Fund. A limited number of scholarships will be available on a first-come,
first-served basis to families meeting financial-need qualifications.
