“Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow.” The opening words of Macbeth’s famous soliloquy come to life this weekend as three performances of a combined opera, ballet and classical music production based on the Shakespearean tragedy are staged at the Marigny Opera House.

Four dancers and four opera singers, accompanied by a string quintet and piano, will perform selections from Giuseppe Verdi’s 1847 “Macbeth” opera at 8 p.m. Friday through Sunday. There will also be selections from Henry Purcell’s “The Fairy Queen,” which is derived from Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

Bogdan Mynka, a Ukrainian tenor now residing in New Orleans, is the creator, producer and artistic director.

The program, titled “Tomorrow and Tomorrow,” is the second production presented by Mynka’s Verismo Opera
