    Bravo previews A Midsummer Night's Dream.
    An innovative twist on a beloved classic! Opera Memphis stages a full-length opera performed entirely a cappella! The company joins forces with Playhouse on the Square to mount a production exciting to both the opera lover and avid theatre-goer. Memphis' favorite a cappella group DeltaCappella and their newly formed sister group RIVA will be featured as the "vocal orchestra." You are sure to be delighted by all three groups of characters - the Athenians, the fairies and the "rude mechanicals." Directed and choreographed by Gary John LaRosa.
