Uncategorized Find Euridice, win Opera tickets
Posted by Julia Victor on Thu, Nov 5, 2009 at 12:27 AM
To garner interest in the premier of Orfeo & Euridice the Atlanta Opera is placing a living statue of Euridice in a different Atlanta neighborhood seven times between November 3 and November 18. The first person to take a picture with the statue each day she hits the streets gets a pair of free tickets to see the show. To win the contest just be the first to email your pic to cswint@atlantaopera.org. The winners will be contacted by e-mail and the photos will be posted to The Atlanta Opera's Facebook page.
Euridice's locations on upcoming dates from 11 a.m.–1 p.m. after the jump.
Thurs., Nov. 5 – Atlantic Station Central Park
Tues., Nov. 10 – Georgia Tech Campus (outside the student center)
Wed., Nov. 11 – Emory University (Carlos Museum and outside the Student Center)
Tues., Nov. 17 – Centennial Olympic Park
Wed., Nov. 18 – Little Five Points (on the corner of Monroe and Euclid)
The famed ancient Greek Legend tells the story of Orfeo who goes to the underworld to retrieve his bride after losing her to a fatal accident. After charming Hades with music, he's allowed to take Euridice back to the mortal realm on one condition: He not look back at her until they are above ground.
See the opera at the Cobb Energy Centre on Sat., Nov. 14 at 8 p.m.; Tues., Nov. 17 at 7:30 p.m.; Fri., Nov. 20 at 8 p.m.; and Sun., Nov. 22 at 3 p.m. Call 404-881-8885 or visit www.atlantaopera.org for tickets.
