: La Bohème Comes To Riverside!
Reply-To: "M. Aybar" <maybar@riversidelyricopera.org>

Dear friends,
 
I'm pleased to share with you that Riverside Lyric Opera will be presenting La Bohème at the Landis Performing Arts Center at Riverside City College on June 28 & 30, 2012 at 7:00 PM.
 
This is going to be a great show, a modern vision for a classic work that will surely thrill you and lead you to fall in love with Puccini for the first time, or all over again.
 
We have a phenomenal cast: sopranos Virenia Lind as Mimì and Catherine Ireland as Musetta, tenor Samuel Druhora as Rodolfo, Bernardo Bermudez as Shaunard and Maloro Acosta as Marcello.  Rounding out the cast are long-time RLO company member John Hanson as Colline and Lee Conger pulling double duty as Benoît & Alcindoro. Our performances will be fully staged, sung in Italian with our resident orchestra. 
 
Ticket prices are $45.00 for VIP Seating, $30.00 for reserved seating and $20.00 for Seniors (60+) and Students with a current school ID.  Tickets can be purchased by calling (951) 781-9561.  Please visit our website at www.riversidelyricopera.org for more information about our production.
 
I take this time to also let you know of a key landmark in our growth: RLO is now a member of the prestigous national opera arts association OPERA AMERICA.  We're pleased to join the ranks of OPERA AMERICA and represent the Inland Empire and specifically the Riverside region at a national level.
 
RLO has been in our community bringing quality musical performances to all audiences coming on ten years.  As we celebrate our tenth anniversary season, please come and enjoy the show, support the arts and discover RLO, where life becomes music.
 
Regards,
 - M.
