A new local opera company is about to make its debut in downtown San Diego. Opera a la Carte is using regional talent in their productions and making the high-class art of opera accessible to all.

Inside the quaint Tenth Avenue Arts Theater in downtown San Diego, music fills the air of the dark, moody building.

“It's so human. It's just filled with humanity and all of the characters, you get to know them,” Réaux said. “They're characters that you become familiar with and you come to love and care about.”“He’s got a lot going on. He’s got anger, he's got love in kind of a convoluted but very authentic way for him,” Pedersen said. “He’s got a deep care and compassion for both Rodolfo and Mimi that manifests in different ways.

Pedersen said that approach is one of the ways that “opera can stay alive in the coming generations and is a necessity I would say for our artform.”
