Isu Theatre presents "Street Scene" an American Opera

ISU Theatre in collaboration with Opera Studio and the ISU Symphony Orchestra presents
"Street Scene"
American Opera in two acts
Music by Kurt Weill
Lyrics by Langston Hughes and Elmer Rice
Book by Elmer Rice

An epic, tragic, joyful opera about community.

November 12-14, 2021

Youthful desire, forbidden love, and brutal vengeance simmer to an explosion in the diverse melting pot of a 1940s New York City tenement. As the heat of the day builds, a family is pushed to an eruption that changes the community forever. Soaring operatic arias and duets rub shoulders with jazz and the jitterbug. With numbers such as 'Lonely House' and 'Moon-faced, Starry-eyed', it's no wonder that Street Scene was awarded Best Original Score at the first Tony Awards in 1947. Contains adult content and language.

November 12 and 13 at 7:30pm
November 14 at 2:00 pm
