Opera. Pop music. Delicious food. The beautiful Minnesota summer. What could be better than
Mixed Precipitation's annual summer picnic operetta that combines all of these things?! Not much. This year's selection for this wonderful tradition known as the picnic operetta is
Donald Giovanni in Cornlandia, a mash-up of Mozart's
Don Giovanni, '80s music, and, you guessed it, this bizarre election. A friend recommended that I should read the plot summary of
Don Giovanni before the show because it can be hard to follow. But I don't think plot is the point. The point is good music, good food, good fun, and the great outdoors. So head out to the park between now and September 18 (
performances in the Twin Cities and outstate Minnesota) and enjoy some delicious food and delicious opera.
