YOUNGSTOWN, OH (June 16, 2022): Opera Western Reserve has received a generous $5,000 donation from the Walter E. and Caroline H. Watson Foundation in support of the November 11, 2022 fall opera, “La Bohème.” OWR thanks the Watson Foundation for its foresight in supporting the future of arts and social service non-profit organizations in the Mahoning Valley. Opera Western Reserve acknowledges the many donations it receives in support of its fall production.
For its 2022 production, Opera Western Reserve presents Giacomo Puccini‘s opera La Bohème. The opera tells the story of friends and lovers who are artists, writers, and musicians struggling to live and create their art in 1800s Paris. La Boheme contains some of opera’s best loved music and has remained popular with audiences since it was written. “La Bohème” will be presented live on November 11, 2022 in the historic Stambaugh Auditorium Concert Hall.
