Please come to the North Cambridge Family Opera's
2013 production of:

ANTIPHONY
Music by Graham Preskett
Book and Libretto by John Kane

Antiphony will be performed eight times at the
Peabody School, 70 Rindge Avenue, Cambridge MA
(North Cambridge, between Porter Square and Arlington):

Saturday, March 16 at 3:00pm and 7:00pm Sunday, March 17 at 1:00pm and 5:00pm Saturday, March 23 at 3:00pm and 7:00pm Sunday, March 24 at 1:00pm and 5:00pm

Antiphony is an uplifting, inspirational, and (especially) funny show for the whole family, featuring some industrious ants, a scheming fly, and a fiddling rasshopper who all have a lot to learn about what makes life worth living.

Featuring entertaining lyrics set to singable music in a variety of styles, Antiphony is presented by an inter-generational cast in English with side titles.

This production comprises two 35-minute acts (plus intermission) and will appeal to audiences of all ages.

The composer and librettist of Antiphony also wrote Flying High (performed
by NCFO last spring), and those of you familiar with that work will recall how memorable Graham's tunes are and how clever John's lyrics are.

Antiphony was performed previously by NCFO in 2002 and 2006 (click for a synopsis with audio and video clips respectively).

The cast of more than 155 chorus members and soloists are drawn from many Greater Boston communities and range in age from 7 to grandparents.

They are divided into two casts, and both are excellent.

Information on which cast members perform in which shows can be found HERE.

Contributing to this production are David Bass (music director),
David Cash (stage direction), Rachel Zimmerman (choreography), and Kathy Lindsay (costumes).

The original set design is by Peter Watson of Peter Watson Stage Design and has been adapted by Mark Jaquith, Carla Procaskey, and Kathy Lindsay.

The lighting design is by David Silber.

The show is produced by Carla Procaskey.

Admission at the door is free.

NCFO welcomes donations and

But, to make sure you get in, you may PURCHASE TICKETS in advance, also $5.00 for children, $10.00 for adults, plus a small service fee.
