Neighborhood View of the Day:
I stopped by opening night for NEMPAC’s presentation of Cosi Fan Tutte, a fully staged opera production including a live orchestra. Your last chance to catch it at Faneuil Hall is tonight, Friday, June 28th. (For those that can’t speak Italian, there are subtitles.) See NEMPAC.org for tickets. A public outreach performance will also be held on Sunday, 4pm at Christopher Columbus Park.
