Bel Canto Seattle Presents: Suitless in Seattle

No dress code required. We’re breaking down the barrier between audience and performer. Suitless in Seattle strips away the traditions that don’t matter anyone and brings great opera arias and songs to you, free of charge.

Experience a relaxed, but passionate environment: Intense, intimate, and deeply human. Tenor and founder John Costello, and soprano Emili Rice, lead a program of familiar arias to rare gems. Also joining us will be special guests mezzo soprano Adrienne LaVey and cellist Rachael Beaver!

Come out to experience opera as it was meant to be: Raw, accessible, and ALIVE.

Update: We are soldout! Thank you so much for your support! We are working hard on adding additional future shows! The show will be streamed live as well! Check back this page for further details within a couple weeks of the show!
