Pining for You at Maine Beer Company

Opera in the Pines returns to Maine Beer Company for an exclusive one-night only celebration of love, Pining for You. Pining for You is an operatic dating show where you, the audience, choose the ultimate couple in opera history. With every aria and dramatic twist, your votes decide which duo will rise above the rest. Throughout the show, you can also enter for the chance to win a love charm, when a legendary opera character will be pining for YOU!

Hosted by Leif Erickson of 107.5 Frank FM, celebrated singers from our past seasons will fight for the title with duets from some of the most iconic operas in the repertoire, with the plot explained for a modern audience.

Whether you bring your partner, a group of friends, or show up solo… there’s plenty of love to go around!

The performance will be 60 minutes, performed without intermission, and sung in the original language of the opera excerpt being presented, with English supertitles.

Founded by three Maine-raised artists, Opera in the Pines is an alternative opera company committed to reinventing the opera experience. We strive to provide other Maine based artists with the opportunity to showcase their talents, utilize unconventional spaces, and create intimate performance experiences for both seasoned opera lovers and new audiences alike.
