The Immersive Coffee Cantata Experience
A Delightful Blend of opera, music, comedy...and coffee!
On Site Opera is creating a new immersive experience just in time for Valentine’s Day, and love is in the air—for coffee! The Immersive Coffee Cantata, February 14-24 at the Lost Draft coffee shop, uncovers and gives a needed refresh to Bach’s hidden gem, Coffee Cantata, a short comedic piece about a young girl who might be slightly obsessed with coffee, much to her father’s disapproval. Offering a unique blend of opera, music, and comedy, this multi-sensory experience includes coffee tastings throughout the evening!

About On Site Opera
Founded in 2012, On Site Opera is the leading presenter of site-specific operas in non- traditional venues throughout New York City. Rooted in collaboration and storytelling, On Site Opera celebrates the connection between artist and audience through highly-curated experiences led by seasoned opera artists and bold and innovative creative teams. To date, OSO has produced 18 operas in as many unique locations to critical acclaim, including Shostakovich’s The Tale of The Silly Baby Mouse using large-scale puppets in performances for families at the Bronx Zoo; Gershwin’s Blue Monday in the historic Cotton Club of Harlem; and Rameau’s Pygmalion in Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum, which explored new technology in opera through the use of Google Glass supertitles. Each production invites New Yorkers to explore their city in new and unique ways, while cultivating a new generation of opera audiences.
