PAPARAZZI, Opera on the Rocks – Prepare yourself to enjoy one of the most unique theatrical experiences you’ll ever “experience,” when you “experience” acclaimed tenor Luciano Paparazzi for an evening of Operatic Comedy. www.firstimpressionstheatre.com in Deep Cove, May 2-18, Wed through Sat at 7:30pm, except Sat, May 4, at 2:00pm only (shuttle option for matinee). Info online or call 604-929-9456.

Canadian theatre professional Kieran Martin Murphy (Jean Valjean in Les Miserables, King Arthur in Spamalot) not only morphs into this hilarious spoof of the great Pavarotti, but he also takes on a cavalcade of other musical greats in an effort to prove his thinly veiled point that all pop music has been influenced and shaped by opera. The show is guaranteed to tickle the funny bone and delight your ears…don’t miss it!
