Picnic at the Opera, Michigan’s only live TV variety show, runs every Wednesday in February from noon to 1pm. Free to the community, join hosts Miriam Pico and David Chown for a fast-paced hour filled with seven live guest performances.
A true live TV variety show, guest performances change weekly, and patrons are part of the live studio audience, experiencing the behind-the-scenes action of camera booms, live audience shots, cue cards, set changes and more.
Admission is free. Doors open at 11:30am; seating is first come, first served. Each live show runs from noon to 1 p.m. Guests are welcome to bring a lunch. Come for 20 minutes or stay for the whole hour.
