Opera doesn’t have to be expensive, serious and intimidating. It can be affordable, fun and approachable, and that’s the idea behind this weekend’s pop-up opera event Diva Cage Match 2.0 from local group Out of the Box Opera. Artistic director David Lefkowich, whose experience includes productions at both the Minnesota Opera and Mill City Summer Opera, helped form Out of the Box Opera formed to give audiences additional ways to experience opera — and attract new audiences.
