Divine will present "The Nightingales," a dream play about 19th century opera stars.

The Nightingales introduces three of the greatest opera stars of the 19th century:
the Swedish-born sopranos Jenny Lind, Christina Nilsson and Signe Hebbe.

In this dream play, they are bitter rivals who compete with their voices, but are united in their joy and love of music and performing. "Divine," the Swedish opera trio comprised of sopranos Caroline Gentele, Jacqueline Miura and Gabriella Lambert-Olson, who portray Jenny, Christina and Signe and sing their repertoire from Der Freischütz, La Traviata, Faust, La Sonnambula, Don Giovanni, Romeo et Juliette, Lucia di Lammermoor, Norma and The Magic Flute, among others.
