Tickets on sale for trip to LA Opera
GRF BUS TRIP
The Recreation Department is organizing a GRF bus trip to see Puccini’s “Turandot” at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion on Saturday, June 8, at 7:30 p.m. at an exceptional value.
For those who have never seen an opera, this is a chance to experience the pageantry and excitement afficionados have treasured for centuries.
“Hiding out in enemy territory, a prince on the run encounters a captivating beauty who scorns love,” the L.A Opera website says of Puccini’s final masterpiece. “With nothing to lose, he enters an all-but-impossible contest, risking his life to win her hand. But after claiming his victory, he faces an even greater challenge: melting Turandot’s icy heart.”
Tickets are $40 per person, which includes transportation. The Recreation Department’s annual trip to the opera is popular and tickets are expected to sell out quickly.
Tickets are available at the Recreation Office, located in the ground floor of Building 5, and can be purchased via cash, check or debit/credit card.
Participants need to complete a release form. The bus leaves from the Amphitheater parking lot at 6 p.m. Tickets are nonrefundable and are sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
