Opera at the Ballpark Friday September 28, 2007



Taken from http://sf.funcheap.com:

San Francisco Opera and the San Francisco Giants invite you to Opera at the Ballpark on Friday, September 28 for a free, live simulcast of Saint-SaĆ«ns’ romantic masterpiece Samson and Delilah. The opera begins at 8 pm, but the pre-show fun starts at 7:30 pm, as HD cameras capture the excitement backstage through interviews with the artists and more.

Treat yourself to a performance of biblical proportion – lavish, colorful and spectacular – as Samson and Delilah is transmitted in high definition, live from the War Memorial Opera House stage to AT&T Park’s 3200-square-foot Mitsubishi Electric Diamond Vision scoreboard. Baseball fans and opera fans alike will be thrilled by this FREE event with seating both on the field and in the stands.
