Operetta and tasting wrap up Caponi series

A quirky operetta paired with a locally sourced tasting menu is the final installment in Caponi Art Park's summer performance series. The show is at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 18 at the park, 1220 Diffley Road.

The show, by the performance company Mixed Precipitation, is called "Agent Fidelio: A Picnic Operetta." It's Beethoven's opera of revolution and liberation "retold with secret agents, covert operations, undercover antics and musical surprises," according to news release from the park. A five-course menu of locally grown, performance-inspired delicacies will be served.

Mixed Precipitation specializes in short-form projects that "encourage exploration of space and collaboration across disciplines." The picnic operetta is the group's signature event.

The event is free, with a $5-per-person suggested donation. More about the show and the Summer Performance Series can be found at www.caponiartpark.org/programs/summerperformanceseries.
