The Jarvis Conservatory was built to set Zarzuela on the world stage. Between 1995 and 2008 sixteen internationally celebrated Zarzuela productions were conceived at this Jewel Box Theater, housed in the Jarvis Conservatory complex. Singers, dancers, musicians and designers from Spain and other parts of the world collaborated on these elaborate shows. Join us as we revisit these timeless pieces and relive the magic of the Spanish Zarzuela.
The Zarzuela Film Festival will screen several Zarzuela productions during the three-day event: LA VERBENA DE LA PALOMA, LUIS ALONSO, LA ALEGRÍA DE LA HUERTA, LA GRAN VÍA, CABERNET JARVÍS. Please visit the ZARZUELA FESTIVAL CALENDAR on the Jarvis conservatory website for schedule times. There will be live performances and discussions celebrating this art form. Also, there will be complimentary Spanish tapas at intermission of each event.
