Shakespeare Opera Theatre

SOT's America 250 Season continues! Shakespeare Opera Theatre presents two unforgettable American Opera gems July 10-19 2026 at Hudson Hall in McLean, Virginia. Susannah Polk is a young woman whose beauty and independence make her stand out in her tightly-knit mountain community. When she’s accused of immoral behavior by the valley’s self-righteous elders, rumor quickly hardens into judgment. Even the well-meaning Reverend is torn between compassion and desire, creating turmoil that drives the drama to bitter tragedy.&nbsp; Carlisle Floyd’s score fuses Appalachian folk sounds with soaring lyricism, creating one of the most unforgettable American works of the 20th century.&nbsp; (Sung in English, run time of one hundred minutes&nbsp;with one intermission) Shakespeare Opera Theatre proudly partners with and is supported by The McLean Community Foundation, &nbsp;The Ross Roberts Fund for the Arts of The Community Foundartion of Northern Virginia, The Fairfax County 250 Fund, The Dimick Foundation, The Johnston Family Foundation,&nbsp;Arts Fairfax and The Virginia Commission for the Arts. Founded in 2015, SOT's unique blend of intimate and immersive classical theater and opera has earned accolades from The Washington Post, The French publication ODB, Operawire, Opera Today, DC Theatre Arts, Theater Washington, Shakespearances, OperaGene, and&nbsp;WTOP radio. Doors open 30 minutes before each performance for themed food and drink at our cabaret table seating. Thanks to our partners and individual donors, tickets remain a tremendous value at $59.50 for adults, $49.50 for youth 18-25 and seniors 65+, and $39.50 for children under 18. Student rush tickets are $20 at the door. Veterans and First Responders can attend free through our VetTix partnership.

<a href="https://eclpfriends.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Ellanor C. Lawrence Park Friends</a> is proud to present the inaugural Summer Slugfest, a charity softball game uniting alumni from two legendary local youth sports organizations for an afternoon of friendly competition, community spirit, and charitable impact.
The six-inning game will take place on Saturday, July 25, 2026, from 12 to 3 pm at the softball fields at Ellanor C. Lawrence Park (5000 Stonecroft Blvd, Chantilly, VA 20151). The event features alumni players (ages 21 and over) from the <a href="https://www.chantillyyouth.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Chantilly Youth Association (CYA)</a> and the <a href="https://syasports.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Southwestern Youth Association (SYA)</a> competing for the 2026 Slugfest Cup.
The free public event will feature:
<ul><li>An alumni softball game between former CYA and SYA players</li><li>Food trucks featuring gourmet hot dogs and cool summer treats&nbsp;</li><li>Giveaways, merchandise, and a 50/50 raffle</li><li>Family fun and community engagement</li><li>Live on-field broadcast from CYA’s The Sideline podcast</li></ul>“Summer Slugfest is exactly what youth sports should be about—community, connection, and giving back,” says SYA CEO Gary Flather. “We’re excited to see former players come together again, represent SYA, and support opportunities for kids and families throughout our area and through ECLP.”
Organizers say the event is about giving back to the next generation and shining a light on all that <a href="https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/eclawrence" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Ellanor C. Lawrence Park</a> offers—over 650 acres of sports fields, trails, historic Cabell’s Mill and Walney Visitor Center, plus the Woodlands Stewardship Education Center and more.
Proceeds from donations, raffles, and merchandise sales at the Summer Slugfest will support scholarships, summer camps, school field trips, and educational programming through local nonprofit Ellanor C. Lawrence Park (ECLP) Friends, helping underserved children access outdoor recreation and learning opportunities.
“With the Summer Slugfest, we hope to get more young adults out enjoying ECLP,” said Friends volunteer and Slugfest organizer Zach Velis. “Funds raised will provide more scholarships for park programs. We grew up attending ECLP camps and playing youth sports—we want every child to enjoy the same opportunities.”
Summer Slugfest is a free, family-friendly event open to the public, with players registering through either CYA or SYA. Community members are encouraged to dig out their purple or red gear and come cheer on their favorite team as local alumni take the field for a great cause.
“The Slugfest is about more than winning a trophy,” added CYA Executive Director Mark Abbott. “It’s about reconnecting alumni, celebrating our shared history in youth sports, and investing back into a park that serves as an educational and recreational resource for the entire community.”
