Traveling the world as an international opera star, Angela Brown noticed something about audiences. “I would see very few people who looked like me,” says Brown. It looked like a racial divide on the surface, but when Brown performed at schools and universities across the country, she realized the gap was bigger than race. This compelled her to create Opera…from a Sistah’s Point of View that dispels the myths surrounding the sometimes-intimidating art form called opera.
Showcasing the fresh talent of rising Black opera stars alongside Angela’s tongue-in-cheek commentary on the opera plots from a Black perspective, the show blows up preconceived expectations of opera. Opera…from a Sistah’s Point of View helps people from all walks of life find themselves in and enjoy opera and leaves no doubt of the ethnic, geographic, and socio-economic diversity depicted in opera characters. Angela likes to say, “Opera is not about being a certain way, dressing a certain way, speaking a certain way. It’s about experiencing, and opera is for everyone!”
