Opera at Bat | Opera Orlando

May 11, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Opera at Bat | Baseball: A Musical Love Letter

It’s Opera at Bat.  Opera Orlando’s next show, Baseball: A Musical Love Letter, is a cabaret-style musical revue that weaves together baseball history with music from every corner of the American Songbook — opera, musical theater, and jazz. It traces baseball’s past from the sport’s early years, through the 1919 Black Sock scandal and the Jazz Age, the rise of the Negro Leagues, the establishment of the Women’s Baseball League, and the trailblazing career of Jackie Robinson.

Opera at Bat

Opera at Bat will include selections from the show intertwined with historical commentary from Orange County Regional History Center staff focusing on surprising ties to the Central Florida area.
Admission is free. RSVP requested.

The Orange County Regional History Center

The Orange County Regional History Center, housed in a historic courthouse in the heart of downtown Orlando, offers four floors of exhibits exploring 12,000 years of Central Florida’s rich heritage. A Smithsonian affiliate, the museum also offers visiting exhibitions and a wide range of programs for families, children, and adults.
