I took a trip up to Haliburton, ON, to hang out with the folks at [Highlands Opera Studio](http://www.highlandsoperastudio.com/cast.html#sthash.Mw758xST.GmXiMt5q.dpbs). The summer opera program is putting up _Tosca_, beginning [August 22nd](https://www.highlandssummerfestival.on.ca/ticket-portal/), and I had the chance to speak with the singers. In the first of two videos about HOS' _Tosca_, you'll meet the lead characters (your Toscas, your Cavaradossis, your Scarpias). You even get to hear some singing.
Stay tuned for the second instalment of behind-the-scenes coverage of _Tosca_ at Highlands Opera Studio.
