Celebrate the fall season AND the WGO season with an opera-o-lantern!
Instead of just carving a regular jack-o-lantern this year… carve a clever opera-themed pumpkin, take a picture and post it on the WGO Facebook (or email it to admin@wichitagrandopera.org and we will post it) for a chance to see one of the most popular operas of all time and....(drumroll) its our treat! (no tricks here)
The carver of the most amazing (and we’re sure they will be amazing) pumpkin will win two tickets to the kick-off production of the WGO 10th Anniversary Season; Puccini's "Madama Butterfly" on January 8th in the Century II Concert Hall with Korean soprano Yunah Lee and Russian superstar tenor Aleksey Sayapin singing the lead roles.
Feel free to be as creative as you want with your pumpkin tribute to opera! We'd recommend using the 2010-2011 WGO Season for inspiration (as it is undoubtedly inspirational...again, check out the lineup here) but any opera theme will do! Humor us as we humbly offer some suggestions to get the ball rolling:
 | |||
| Disney Snow Queen or crazed Scottish royal, Lucia? |
 | ||||||
| Puccini Pumpkin? |
and last, but not least...our favorite:
 | ||||
| the one and only Pavarotti Pumpkin! |
Happy Carving!
