experience:

Herring
with

Music
by

Britten
|
Libretto
by

Crozier.
Sung

text

In
a
small
British
village,
the
hunt
is
on
for
a
young
girl
innocent
enough
to
be
elected
Queen
of
the
May.
When
none
are
found,
poor
Albert
is
enlisted
as
May
King
instead,
with
unexpected
and
entertaining
results.
An
ensemble
cast
of
delightful
English
eccentrics
proves
that
repression
is
rarely
a
good
thing,
and
that
lemonade
turns
out
to
go
surprisingly
well
with
a
little
rum.
Come
hear
some
of
Houston’s
only

in-person
