Once again Lamorinda residents will have the opportunity to hear Litz Plummer perform live at the Rheem Theatre at 7 p.m. on Saturday, June 18.
Plummer appeared at the Rheem in February to a sold-out audience, as she astonished attendees singing opera's greatest arias. This time, she will be performing the most-loved songs in the history of Broadway and the movies.
Plummer is a spinto soprano, a classification of voice that combines the melodic ease of a lyric soprano with some of the depth of tone and power of a dramatic soprano. This unique mix of timbres allows her to perform an eclectic mix of repertoires, even allowing her to sing arias from traditionally mezzo soprano roles.
At the tender age of three, Plummer announced to her parents that she would be an opera singer, presumably after watching a Bugs Bunny cartoon. The idea stayed with her through her formative years, and she finally began her formal training at age 13. At the University of Georgia, she studied with Dr. David Stoffel, a baritone, earning a bachelor's degree in vocal performance. After graduating, she moved to North Carolina and worked as the house singer at two Raleigh-area Macaroni Grills, eventually becoming involved with the Durham Savoyards (a Gilbert and Sullivan troupe) and the Long Leaf Opera, before moving to San Francisco to pursue the dream of a performing career.
Plummer has performed in such varied venues as the Legion of Honor, the de Young and Asian Art Museums, Martuni's, The Punchline, Broadway Studios, Copia, the Bohemian Grove, the Marin Art and Garden Center and the Eagle Tavern.
Plummer also appeared on the hit television series, "America's Got Talent."
The Rheem Theatre is proud to bring this caliber of live entertainment to Lamorinda. Plummer's performance of "Ave Maria" alone is worth the price of admission, which is $20. Tickets can be purchased online at www.lamorindatheatres.com or at the Rheem Theatre Box-Office. Don't miss the amazing voice of Litz Plummer on June 18.
