A Little Night Music
Central City hosts West Side Story and the Yellow Rose Ball.
This year, the Central City Opera House — built from the proceeds of the Gold Rush, restored during the Great Depression and now the nation’s fifth-oldest operating opera house — turns 130, and it still feels pretty. Leonard Bernstein’s West Side Story opens with a sold-out performance tonight and continues through August 9. Also tonight, at the next-door Teller House, catch a tradition over seventy years in the making as the Yellow Rose Ball ushers in the beginning of the Opera’s summer festival season. Tickets for the ball, which gets under way at 5 p.m., are $255, but those who can’t make it can still enjoy waltzing in the street by the Central City Opera Flower Girls.
