Opera Philadelphia's Opera on the Mall and from Netflix and Billions, Comedian Dan Soder

Michael Bolton (not that Michael Bolton), the Vice President of Community Initiatives for Opera Philadelphia, and Sarah Williams, the New Works Administrator for Opera Philadelphia join Kristen Herrmann in studio to talk about this year’s Opera on the Mall. Opera on the Mall is opera for everyone. Opera being shown FOR FREE on an HD screen in the middle of Independence Mall. It’s super cool, and this year it’s cooler than ever. One year after its sold-out world premiere, Opera Philadelphia is producing an encore engagement of We Shall Not Be Moved. It’s a modern opera set on the site of the 1985 MOVE bombing, and there’s so much more to it than that. Hear all about it, then join the rest of the city on Saturday, September 29th at 6pm at Independence National Historic Park for a FREE screening of the show. Bring blankets, food, even alcohol, and see opera as you’ve never seen it before. Tickets will be made available to the public on Wednesday, August 29th. Then, once you’re hooked - join Opera Philadelphia for the rest of their O18 festival. More details at www.operaphila.org.

Then, the very funny comedian Dan Soder joins Matt & Kristen on the Morning Show to talk about his upcoming performances, Billions on Showtime, new Netflix special, wrestling, roller derby and more. Find more on Dan Soder at https://dansoder.com/.
