Kate Tombaugh ’07 along with another IWU alumna, Megan Koch ’17, is currently in Fort Worth, Texas singing with the Fort Worth Opera. Small world indeed. Megan is currently wrapping up her 1st year as a Masters student at the University of North Texas, and both she and Kate have the distinct honor of singing in Fort Worth’s ‘Frontiers’ showcase next Thursday, May 3rd at Bass Performance Hall at 7:30 PM. Megan will sing excerpts as ‘Mabel’ in “Mabel’s Call,” a new opera by composer-librettist Nell Shaw Cohen, and Kate will be singing excerpts as ‘The Dough’ in “Companionship” by Rachel Peters and ‘Clara Ford’ in “Fordlandia” by composer William Susman and librettist Stuart Rojstaczer. It will be a tremendous showcase for these great new works! Opera is alive and thriving  Go to this link to learn more: https://fwopera.org/frontiers2018/
