Opera Day! Cosi Fan Tutte – Sat, March 31

On Saturday, March 31, the New York Met will be live-streaming Così Fan Tutte to Oceanside’s Regal Theater.  

This is Mozart’s comedy about the sexes, set in a carnival-esque, funhouse environment inspired by 1950s Coney Island—complete with bearded ladies, fire eaters, and a Ferris wheel.

Come see it live on the big screen, and enjoy better views than most people attending the Met in New York, for a fraction of the price!

This is such a special event, and there’s no need to be an opera expert to enjoy it! — (See testimonials for previous Opera Days)

Learn about this famous opera in advance (synopsis in English & Italian), over breakfast, and then go watch it with other lovers of Italian language and culture.

“It always makes a work of art so much more meaningful to discuss and understand it before actually viewing it. It will ‘stick’ with us for a long time, I am sure.” -G. Bravender, attended Tosca, La Bohème

The event is open to anyone, with or without a background in Italian language. (Opera shown with English subtitles)

Bring a friend if you’d like, join us and treat yourself to Opera Day!
