Dear John, you’re invited!
The witches are circling. The queen is doomed. Carthage is about to burn.
DIDO & AENEAS ([link removed]) storms Fisch Haus February 20-22.
We've assembled 10 of the Midwest's most dangerous voices to tear Purcell's masterpiece apart and stitch it back together with precision, fire, and feeling. This isn't whatever you think opera is (unless you think opera is torch songs, witchcraft, and emotional devastation—in which case, you're correct).
JOIN US IN CARTHAGE! ([link removed])
THE CAST
Michaela Larsen ([link removed]) brings regal fury as DIDO—the queen who would rather die than be abandoned
Carter Tholl ([link removed]) is BELINDA, Dido's ride-or-die confidante (and one of Wichita's most versatile sopranos)
Caroline Lee ([link removed]) summons chaos as the SORCERESS who orchestrates it all
Christen May Mayer ([link removed]) and Cade Chisham ([link removed]) are the WITCHES wreaking havoc
Mason McClellan ([link removed]) makes his principal debut as AENEAS, the hero who ruins everything
Plus Ramon Mosate ([link removed]) , Ethan Manlove ([link removed]) , Carson Manlove ([link removed]) , and Isaac Dowell, rounding out this powerhouse ensemble
Limited seating. Three performances only!

WHY YOU NEED TO BE THERE
* Intimate. Dangerous. Three acts with room to sip, connect, and process the heartbreak—all over in 90 minutes. (Plenty of time to catch another event or hang after, overachievers.)
* String quartet and harpsichord playing Purcell like their lives depend on it
* A story about love, betrayal, and choosing yourself when the world wants you small
* Fisch Haus. Vino. Baroque tears.
