Intermountain Opera Bozeman continues the celebration of it's 35th anniversary season of presenting world class opera to Bozeman with Rossini's La Cenerentola.  Rossini's take on the Cinderella story is no simplistic fairy tale.  There is no pumpkin coach and no glass slipper, and in place of a fairy godmother there's a wise old philosopher who wants his handsome prince to marry not just the fairest of them all but also the best and kindest.  Yet, while reason and realism prevail, there is no shortage of magical enchantment in the miraculous score, which happily combines high comedy and heartfelt emotion.  The IOB productions feature nationally known performers, conductors and directors who work together with our many local talented performers and musicians to provide outstanding entertainment. Please join us by purchasing your tickets online (www.intermountainopera.org), at the office at 104 E. Main, Suite 101 (US Bank Bldg), Bozeman or by calling the office at 406-587-2889.  Student and new patron discounts are available.
