Roll call to join us for an exclusive screening of The Met Opera\u2019s Porgy and Bess.<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Last month we held our first \u201cEvening With Ludwig Van\u201d event simultaneously in two different cities – Toronto and Montr\u00e9al.<\/p>\n

The response was overwhelming, selling out in just two days. (Apparently, Toronto really loves its opera, but we knew that already, right?)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We originally planned the screening as a special \u201cthank you\u201d to our 100,000+ monthly readers who visit us every day to keep up with daily features, news, and reviews for the events that matter.<\/p>\n

The news today is, we\u2019re doing it again.<\/p>\n

The next Evening with Ludwig Van<\/strong> will take place in both Toronto <\/a>and Montr\u00e9al<\/a> on Saturday, March 28, at 5 pm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This is a chance for you to see an opera for free alongside good friends who love classical music as much as you do.<\/p>\n

Afterwards, join us for a drink and some food at the Cineplex lounge.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s why you should come:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

1: You\u2019ll get to see an exclusive Encore screening of the 2020 Metropolitan Opera production of Porgy and Bess by Gershwin alongside friends who love opera as much as you do.

You\u2019ll hear a stellar cast including Donovan Singletary as fisherman Jake, Golda Schultz as his wife Clara, Latonia Moore as the bereaved widow Serena, Frederick Ballentine as drug dealer Sportin\u2019 Life, Alfred Walker as the brutal stevedore Crown, and Denyce Graves as Maria, town matriarch and operator of the local cook-shop.<\/p>\n

2: It\u2019s free. (you\u2019ll just need to pay for your popcorn)<\/p>\n

3: It\u2019s a chance to meet other opera lovers, just like you<\/p>\n

And if all that wasn\u2019t enough\u2026 a few writers of this fine, fine publication will be there shaking hands and kissing babies.\u00a0How fun.<\/em><\/p>\n
