“South Pacific” Paulo on Your Screen!

In anticipation of the Dallas Opera’s exciting season opener, Mozart’s DON GIOVANNI starring Tony Award-winner Paulo Szot, we’d like you to have a chance to fall in love with the Brazilian baritone in his signature role of “Emile de Becque,” the good-guy French planter in Rogers & Hammerstein’s SOUTH PACIFIC, before just plain falling for the tantalizing womanizer who scandalizes all Seville! And this week is it! Be sure to tune in to KERA television on Wednesday, August 18th at 7:00 PM (Central Time) for “Live From Lincoln Center.” Experience the critically acclaimed Broadway revival of SOUTH PACIFIC (the first, since the iconic musical opened in 1949) with its original stars: Kelli O’Hara as nurse Nellie Forbush and Paulo Szot as the romantic widower who sweeps her off her feet for “Some Enchanted Evening.” See your television or cable listings; also available on HDPBS.
If you haven’t already purchased your subscription for the coming “Dangerous Desires” Season, act now! Single tickets for DON GIOVANNI (available September 7th) could go fast, in the wake of this week’s much-anticipated live broadcast. Call 214.443.1000 or visit us online at dallasopera.org.
