Hosted by Paula Poundstone, A Night at the Opera aims to throw a humorous twist on this stereotypically stuffy artform. The stand-up comic Poundstone is known for her quick wit and improvisational ability. Over the course of her decades-long career, she has appeared on television and on the radio. She is a regular guest on NPR’s weekly news quiz, Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me! Some of her recent work includes a new comedy podcast Live from the Poundstone Institute. In a stage shared with Opera San Jose artists and chorus, the comedian will deliver with a recognizable sense of humor. (JR)
