Think all operas are tragedies? Be proven wrong at the Skylight Opera Theatre, known for its light, comedic operas. Uplifting performances are done in an all-English repertoire rather than traditional Italian. Since 1959, Skylight has produced 30 world and three American premieres, over 70 original cabaret shows and 29 touring productions.

Experience a tropical jungle, a desert oasis and a special floral garden all in one afternoon at the Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory. Also known as "The Domes," this attraction features a huge collection of exotic and local plantlife within its three domed conservatories and garden. Stop by after sundown for a spectacular evening light show.
