    The heavy-hitting and often spontaneous style of Hip Hop that gets audiences grooving doesn’t really match with the buttoned-up, formal setting performances opera singers typically face years of practice and tutoring to achieve— but that is exactly what’s coming to Rosa Parks Circle.

    The free, genre-mashing pop-up is thanks to Opera Grand Rapids.

    Performers will fuse classic stories and themes with insane beats and vocal prowess.

    Hip Opera takes over the stage on May 15 at 7 p.m.
