La Cenerentola Meet & Greet

This past Wednesday was our Board Meet & Greet with the artists of La Cenerentola. This is something that we do for each opera of the season. It takes place right after a board meeting, usually early on in the rehearsal process. It’s a time for board members and their guests to meet the artists and vice versa.

The board meeting ended a little after 6:00pm, and the artists finished their three-hour rehearsal at about the same time. Once everyone had arrived, Willie introduced the singers and Director. From that point, everyone was free to mix and mingle and eat! It was a casual atmosphere, with a light supper catered by Café Louise. (I knew pretty soon after I started working for Connecticut Opera that I was not ever going to go hungry at our events! I have not been disappointed yet!)

Things finished up around 7:00. Everyone seemed to have had a good time, and left looking forward to getting to see the artists in action in our production of La Cenerentola.
