Arias Aloft: Chromatic

Join us for a magical evening of opera, musical theater, cabaret, and circus in the deCordova Sculpture Park! Spread a blanket on the ground, or bring your own chair for a wonderful, family-friendly evening.

Circus 617 and Opera Untapped combine two thrilling art forms against a stunning backdrop of art in nature for a one-of-a-kind event. With vocal acrobatics and physical virtuosity featuring some of New England’s leading circus artists and classical singers, this performance showcases opera, musical theater, and cabaret classics paired with breathtaking original circus acts.

Inspired by the unique natural surroundings of the Trustees of Reservation, Arias Aloft: Chromatic is shaped by the colors of the natural world—drawing audiences into a living landscape of music and movement, and capturing the beauty of a New England summer.

Arias Aloft: Chromatic is supported in part by the Lincoln Cultural Council and by an Audeville Society Artists’ Grant.
