Fantasy Flute-ball
One wouldn’t expect to hit Cowboys Stadium for a night at the opera, but that all changes with this Dallas Opera simulcast. Yep, Saturday’s performance of The Magic Flute at the Winspear Opera House will also play at the stadium offering an entirely different way to appreciate a good aria. Live or on the screen, it will be a touchdown for opera fans.
DEETS:
Cowboys Stadium
1 Legends Way, Arlington.
Free but tickets must be requested.
