La Spazzatura
La Spazzatura [Italian: (n) trash] is low brow opera, high brow improv. Based on a single audience suggestion, they perform comedic arias, duets, and perfectly executed recitativo* accompanied by piano. *That sound you heard was Mozart rolling in his grave.
Performers: Emily Markoe, Nicole Odell, Olivia Puerta and Meghan Trowbridge. Musical Director: Michael Risse.
