Fargo-Moorhead Opera

Join us for an unforgettable evening at the Fargo Moorhead Opera's presentation of "Speed Dating Tonight!" This unique and hilarious opera, crafted by Michael Ching and based on a concept by Dean Anthony, is set to take place on March 8th & 9th, 2024, at 7:30 PM at the TAK Music Venue in Dilworth, MN.

"Speed Dating Tonight!" brings to life a speed dating event like no other, hosted regularly at a local bar. The opera showcases a diverse group of daters, from the shy and reserved to the self-assured, and from the trustworthy to those you should perhaps be wary of. With a mix of individuals looking for long-term partners and those interested in more casual connections, the evening promises a range of outcomes—some finding success in love, while others may not be as fortunate.

The performance is brought to life by the talented 2024 Gate City Bank Young Artists, who will navigate through the complexities of modern dating, set to a vibrant score that spans operatic, classical, musical theater, and even pop music genres. This engaging narrative promises an evening filled with laughter, reflection, and perhaps a bit of self-recognition.
