Bellevue’s Crossroads Community Center Theater opens its huge garage-style doors to the outside for a FREE “concert in the park” featuring the Ladies Musical Club of Seattle (LMC) musicians and their guest artists.

In addition to four lively pieces for viola and piano, audience members will enjoy several popular and timeless songs from operas by Mozart, Menotti, and more in a delightful setting of light costumes and staging. This is the last of LMC’s 50+ free performances during its 2016-2017 season, one that celebrated the nonprofit organization’s 125th anniversary. The 2017-2018 season of free performances at multiple metro-Seattle venues will resume in October.
