Light Opera of Portland Presents: Patience

LIGHT OPERA OF PORTLAND (LOoP) is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of the charming and witty OPERA, "PATIENCE," by the iconic duo Gilbert and Sullivan. This delightful performance will take the stage at the PORTLAND'5 BRUNISH THEATRE MAY 30–June 15, offering audiences an unforgettable experience filled with humor, satire, and whimsical music."Patience," first performed in 1881, is a comedic opera that cleverly critiques the aesthetic art movement, fads, fashions, and superfans, and the nature of romantic love. Set in a fictional English village, the story follows the antics of the poet Bunthorne, the milkmaid Patience, and a host of lovesick maidens. With its clever libretto and catchy melodies, "Patience" remains a favorite among Gilbert and Sullivan enthusiasts and newcomers alike. The Light Opera of Portland is proud to feature a talented cast and crew who bring this production to life with energy and authenticity. Under the skilled direction of Artistic Director Laurence Cox, and with musical direction by Josh Pounders, audiences can expect a vibrant and polished performance that honors the spirit of Gilbert and Sullivan's original work. Performances will run Friday through Sunday May 30th - June 15th, 2025 at the Brunish Theater in the Antionette Hatfield Hall.
