The Barber of Seville

Sunday, June 28, 1pm

ROKCincy is thrilled to announce our special adaptation of Rossini’s classic comedy “The Barber of Seville.” Sung in English and Italian, this show stuns with familiar music, vocal fireworks, and high energy hijinks. The performance is 40 minutes long and appropriate for families and kids grades K-6. Rosina has been grounded by her strict guardian, Dr. Bartolo and isn't allowed to enter her project into the State Science Fair. Her teachers, Professor Figaro and Professor Susanna know that she can win first place if they can only get it submitted. They’ll need all their cunning, and more than a few tricks, to pull this off! Admission is free. RSVP to events@thecarnegiecenter.org.
