“The studio production comes of age.”

Jove’s head over heels for Calisto.  But she’s sworn to follow the goddess Diana and a life of virginity—a fact that doesn’t slow Jove down one little bit! Needless to say, Jove’s wife is none too pleased with the whole affair. But egads! Turning Calisto into a bear is just a bit harsh, wouldn’t you say?

Baroque opera continues its conquest of the 21st century with this heady brew of humor and sincerity.

Featuring some of the best young singers in the country- members of the Portland Opera Studio.  And now, for the very first time, in the beautiful intimacy of the Newmark Theatre.

Sung in Italian with projected English translations.

All performances are held at the Newmark Theatre located at 1111 SW Broadway (at Main Street)—the perfect setting for this special work.

Chamber operas offer riches to composers, performers and audiences alike.  Things not possible on the Keller Auditorium mainstage become magical in this intimate theater setting.
