Virtual Opera Reading: Penelope Ann's Revenge

First Coast Opera and A Classic Theatre will hold a reading of the all-new one-act opera Penelope Ann’s Revenge on August 30, 2020. Live streaming will be available for audiences.

This is a preview for an event that is scheduled for First Coast Opera’s 21st Season in 2020-2021.

The 21st Season will conclude in 2021 with two one-act operas performed in collaboration with A Classic Theatre that were postponed due to COVID-19. Arthur Sullivan’s Cox and Box is paired with a new sequel, the world premiere of Penelope Ann’s Revenge. The latter is the third original opera by FCO Artistic Director Curtis Tucker and collaborator Nelson Sheeley, following The Stranger’s Tale and The Trial of B. B. Wolf, heard in earlier FCO seasons.

Performances are anticipated for May 2021.
