Holiday Swing with the Mercury Five

A virtual evening of wonderfully festive music presented by Mercury Opera!

Originally slated for a series of live performances at the CO*LAB Arts space, Mercury Opera’s The Mercury 5 are magically pirouetting into a retro style virtual Christmas celebration with special thanks to The City of Leduc’s Maclab Centre for the Performing Arts. The hour long program includes holiday hits from the swing era and more. So sip some eggnog or a martini, and dust off your tinsel for a dazzling night of entertainment in your home. Begins at 7:30pm Mountain Time on December 19th and will be accessible any time after until December 27th.

Tenor - Boris Derow - vocals

Mercury Opera is known for messing with the public's perception of opera by fusing genres and presenting opera in unexpected places: on top of a paddle wheeler, commuter rail platforms, back alleys, a downtown diner, a strip club, a saloon, circus sideshow, tents and more conventional amphitheatres.
