Making a Community Opera with Eli Villanueva, Natalie Iscovich and Tehvon Fowler-Chapman

Eli Villanueva and Natalie Iscovich share a passion for creating environments where students and community members feel comfortable expressing themselves creatively. This shared passion has brought them together as a dynamic duo of teaching artists, who both got their start with LA Opera Connects on the same production, almost 30 years apart. Eli and Natalie talk to Tehvon Fowler-Chapman, Vice President of LA Opera Connects about their creative beginnings and what it takes to mount a community opera with hundreds of participants. Tickets to this year's Community Opera, Moses, are available now at LAOpera.org.
