Featuring Star Trek-Inspired Production of Mozart’s

"Whether you are a rabid Star Trek fan or just versed enough to get by in pop culture,
this zany and pitch-perfect opera triumphs in pure laugh-out-loud hilarity."
– Pasadena Independent
Plus, Daily Production Upload to POP’s YouTube Channel
Los Angeles, CA (March 30, 2020) — Pacific Opera Project (POP) announces an interactive watch party of a rebroadcast of POP's hit production of Mozart’s Abduction from the Seraglio from The Ford Amphitheatre, recorded in September of 2016, on Wednesday, April 8, 2020 at 5pm PT. The watch party features interviews with the cast, an update from POP's Artistic Director about the rest of the season, and interactive elements including costume contests, drink recipes, and more. The stream will be available on POP’s YouTube Channel and Facebook Page. In his time when "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few," POP invites homebound audiences to boldly go where no "quarantined" opera audience has gone before.
A cast of more than 40 singing and dancing Klingons, Alien Slave Girls, and all your favorite Star Trek original series characters are joined by a full orchestra. Filled with Trekker easter eggs and incredible singing, POP boldly goes on an exploration of innovative, entertaining opera at warp speed. The cast includes Brian Cheney as Cpt. James T. Belmonte, Robert Norman as Mr. Pedrillo, Shawnette Sulker as Lt. Constanza, Claire Averill as Blondie, Phil Meyer as Osmin, Gregg Lawrence as Chancellor Selim, and Aubrey Trujillo-Scarr as Gorn.
Pacific Opera Project also announces that it will be uploading a full-length production broadcast to its YouTube Channel once a day through April 19. The full schedule can be seen below.
