The New Seven Deadly Sins, August 7-10
Skylark is delighted to announce the cast of The New Seven Deadly Sins in its Minnesota premiere at the Crane Theater, August 7-10, 2025. Be prepared to experience opera/musical theater in a whole new way! This is not your usual song and dance—it’s a bold fusion of music and movement featuring the creative choreography and stage direction of Nikki Swoboda and the musical virtuosity of Skylark’s Artistic Director, James Barnett. Soprano Bergen Baker (As One, Marry Me a Little) and dancers Sarah Potvin and Patrick Jeffrey (Skylark debuts) will bring each sin to thrilling life!
