That’s a wrap on our first opera of the season, Lilies (Les Feluettes)! We want to thank our sponsors, cast, production team, musicians and staff for bringing this story to life. Most of all, we’d like to thank our audience for showing this opera so much love, support, and pride.
"Kevin March’s lyrical, compulsively dramatic score [...] wraps itself around and through the love story that explodes onstage," says Liz Nicholls, adding that "the chemistry between Zachary Read’s young Simon and Jean-Michel Richer as Count Vallier is ardent, deeply committed, beautiful to watch and bravely set forth onstage."
