Julia Noulin-Merat is the general director and CEO of Opera Columbus. She believes that the performing arts are the best way to have conversations with the community.
Actors Michael Kelly and Blythe Gaissert are visiting Columbus from New York City to star in Opera Columbus' production "As One," which features a story about Hannah, a transgender woman. "Her transition is at the heart of As One, but more than that it’s a story of self discovery and acceptance," says Kelly.
