A groundbreaking opera by George and Ira Gershwin, this national tour of Porgy and Bess weaves a tale of prejudice, love, and tragedy. Incorporating a wealth of blues and jazz into the classical art of opera, Gershwin considered Porgy and Bess his finest work with songs such as "Summertime" and “It Ain’t Necessarily So.” Presented in association with The King Arts Complex, this Spectrum Series performance is made possible through the generous support of Univar and series sponsors David and Mo Meuse.
