Porgy and Bess Tickets - Washington DC - Gershwin's Classic Opera!

When most people think of opera, they picture fat Valkyries and stories about 19th century Europe. That's why George Gershwin set out to create a "folk opera"—something that depicted people as they lived in the street, something that was a little (or a lot) more modern. The result was Porgy and Bess, perhaps the best known 20th century opera.
