Opera Cambridge: Down in the Valley
Multicultural Arts Center, 41 Second Street, Cambridge, MA
November 6 – 8, 2026. Inspired by Kurt Weill’s love of classic American folk songs, Down in the Valley tells the sad story of doomed love between Brack and Jenny. Opera Cambridge’s mission is to present lesser-known operatic gems that deserve to be widely heard; to educate a wide range of people to the beauty and emotional richness of great operatic works at reasonable prices; to cast a wide net in engaging an ethnically diverse and gendered ensemble of singers, directors, and crew; and to engage both emerging artists and established performers to foster a communal musical experience for cast and audiences.
