July 3rd - ONE NIGHT ONLY

For one night only, Opera Laguna presents a semi-staged concert of The Student Prince, the beloved operetta that became the longest running show on Broadway of its time following its 1924 premiere and was later popularized through recordings by Mario Lanza.

Sent to Heidelberg to live as a student, Crown Prince Karl Heinrich steps into a life far from the one he is meant to lead. There are new friendships, and a love he never planned on. For a moment, it feels like everything could be different.

The Student Prince features internationally acclaimed operatic soloists, a full live orchestra, and Opera Laguna’s Young Professional Chorus. It is directed by Josh Shaw and conducted by Brian Holman.

With music by Sigmund Romberg and book and lyrics by Dorothy Donnelly, this reimagined adaptation by Oriana Geis-Falla and Arnold Geis brings a fresh perspective to a classic.

Sung in English with supertitles.
