Die Fledermaus by Johann Strauss II is a modernized version of the popular operetta that combines the talents of the College's classically trained vocalists with some of its more contemporary rock & rollers. Strauss' music, played by orchestra members of the Catskill Symphony, will underscores a rollicking story of sex, lies, and revenge.
For the Valentine's Day Opera Ball, a catered dinner buffet with champagne and cash bar will be served during intermission and the second act of the opera. The ball will follow the performance with dessert and dancing as well as a special exhibition of ballroom dancing by members of the show's ensemble.
