COD Students Hit the Stage

It is the time of year when the talented students of the College of DuPage and the future of the arts in our community begin taking the stage. This Thursday, Oct 15 the combined student music concert features small jazz ensembles, the percussion ensemble, chamber singers, concert choir, and the chamber orchestra. The concert is at 7:30 on the Mainstage.

Theatre students bring Bram Stoker's classic Dracula to life in the Studio Theatre. The tale of Lucy, van Helsing and the Count opens Friday, Oct 16 and runs through Nov 1. Check out the MAC's Facebook page where we'll post photos from the production directed by Professor Amelia Barrett.

L'Elisir d'Amore - Sneak Peak

Elixir of Love is a favorite of mine ever since I worked on a production of it during my grad work at U of I. It is the perfect summer opera and Michael LaTour and Kirk Muspratt really put on a good show. Here is a sneak peak of the DuPage Opera Theatre production that opens July 18 (Elixir - YouTube) and features MAC favorites Michelle Areyzaga (Adina) and John Sumners (Nemorino) along with a chorus of dozens.
