Watch, eat, and gather.
In the spirit of beloved holiday specials, Gather Together: A Musical Potluck is a joyful reminder that across all cultures and most holidays, we celebrate by assembling with friends and family over delicious meals. This streaming event features resident artist alums Tesia Kwarteng and Jake Stamatis hosting as they return to the togetherness of a traditional holiday meal. They are joined by a smorgasbord of celebrated TCO performers, each offering up a musical “dish-to-pass” by performing your favorites (and soon-to-be favorites) from opera, broadway, and pop. Family-oriented and available to stream for free, we hope you’ll make this special a part of your festivities as you “Gather Together” and celebrate this year.
