La Opera Talks: The Abduction from the Seraglio

Community Educators from LA Opera will give free, introductory, multimedia talks about its current opera season. Today: The Abduction from the Seraglio. Updated to the Roaring Twenties, this riotous staging marries the brilliance of Mozart’s comic gem with the flare of a classic Hollywood comedy. En route from Istanbul to Paris, two beautiful damsels in distress are held captive aboard the luxurious Orient Express by a notorious Ottoman royal. It’s up to their faithful lovers to rescue them before it’s too late! Light refreshments are provided by the Oxnard Friends of the Library Foundation.
