String & Shadow Puppet Theater's "Night at the Grand Opera" unfolds a candlelit cardboard opera house where rococo drama spills offstage: revolutionary plots tangle with love triangles, and even the flies have opinions. Bring a blanket and settle in for inventive outdoor theater that turns paper and imagination into pure spectacle.
