The ASU Opera Theatre will present "Opera Idol," a program spoofing the popular TV show "American Idol." Student "contestants" will demonstrate their opera skills before a panel of "celebrity" judges. The program will be presented Thursday, October 21, and Friday, October 22, at 7:30 each evening at Riceland Hall of the Fowler Center at ASU-Jonesboro. KASU's Marty Scarbrough spoke with Marika Kyriakos, director of ASU Opera Theatre, who explained the concept behind this production.
