CATAPULT LIVE

SAN GIOVANNI

BATTISTA

an opera by ALESSANDRO STRADELLA

June 11-13, 2025
The Space at Irondale BROOKLYN, NY

The Headless Disco

Stick around after the opera on Friday, June 13th and boogie back in time during The Headless Disco. 

Slip into your bell bottoms, platform shoes, fringe, or psychedelic prints and get ready to get down as we turn back the clock to the decade of disco, funk, and full-on flair. Whether your vibe is Saturday Night Fever, Soul Train, or Studio 54, the opera and dance floor are waiting for your best retro look.

See you on the flip side!
