The Minnesota Opera

To maintain tip-top technique, opera singers communicate only by song, which can lead to awkward exchanges when they’re pulled over for speeding or visiting a dentist. Witness the fruit of all that labor with today’s Groupon. For $50, you get level-B seats to The Minnesota Opera’s production of La bohème at the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts in St. Paul. The Minnesota Opera is considered one of the most exciting opera companies in the country and specializes in staging works from the bel canto era, rather than the less popular yell canto era. Seats are in the B section (excellent acoustics and sightlines, a $110 value), so you’ll be able to comfortably look on in awe as high-pitched voices shatter monocles in even the loftiest board-game tycoon's balcony.
