Fire Opera?
A unique fusion of Opera and Fire Arts featuring artists from San
Francisco Opera and a 30 piece orchestra from The Oakland East Bay
Symphony. The Opera traces Anna, the heroine's journey through seven
American cities - the seven sins, and her struggles to reconcile her
materialistic social existence with her quintessential inner artist.
Much like "Dido & Aeneas," The Crucible's first Fire Opera in Jan 2004
that was an enormous success, "The Seven Deadly Sins," promises to
exceed all expectations. Don't miss this unique opportunity to
experience a sensuous, fiery, and provocative production that will lead
