An operatic farce, UNDER THE OVERTURE features the glorious music of Rossini's overture music in a way you've never heard (or seen) before. Imagine the slapstick of NOISES OFF colliding with the sparkling overture from THE BARBER OF SEVILLE and you'll have an idea of the fun in store in this unique entertainment that adds a contemporary feminist kick to classic farce.

UNDER THE OVERTURE affords ample opportunity for inventive, even spectacular, staging. And it invites its cast of ten musical clowns to make spectacles of themselves. A fast-paced evening of music and madness that ultimately becomes a story of recognition and inclusion, reconciliation and forgiveness. Website: undertheoverture.com
