I’m auditioning/performing with the DC Chapter of Opera On Tap! This is an incredible international organization of singers bringing opera to the people—we will perform at the Wonderland Ballroom, a bar in the Columbia Heights area of Washington DC. It’s a bar, so what’s more appropriate that singing a little “Libiamo” from La Traviata? I’m keeping the Verdi good times going with my own audition selection—Sul fil d’un soffio etesio from Falstaff. Come for a drink, music and infuse your Thursday evening with fun! I appreciate your support in my “audition” portion of the evening—-I’ll be singing sometime around the end of the program, a few drinks in for most.

I’m “pinch me this can’t be real” thrilled to be making my Wolftrap Opera Debut in the Chorus of Puccini’s La Boheme this summer for one performance only on July 19, 2024. Tickets are going fast so reserve your seat ASAP or enjoy the lawn seating, weather permitting. I can’t wait to frequent the cafes of Paris in my imagination singing this glorious music. I’m grateful to Wolftrap Opera for this exciting opportunity and will happily dodge the bugs outdoor all summer to perform in my first La Boheme. I hope you can join us for this musical experience! Reserve tickets.
