Bravi tutti! We're sad to see Donizetti's THE DAUGHTER OF THE REGIMENT march away tonight, but we'd like to give our amazing cast, chorus, orchestra, Maestra, crew, and creative team a round of applause for the love and laughter. 📷 : Michael Brosilow

Due to a family emergency that required her immediate return to Norway, soprano Lise Davidsen has had to withdraw from Sunday’s performance of JENŮFA. Stepping into the title role will be Ryan Opera Center soprano Kathryn Henry. (Photo: Michael Brosilow)

Kathryn Henry recently won critical & audience acclaim at Santa Fe Opera in the leading role of Lucy Harker in the world premiere of THE LORD OF CRIES & at Aspen Music Festival in the leading role of Roxane Coss in BEL CANTO. Soprano Kimberly McCord will appear as Jana. TOIx3!

Whether you’re expecting 1,500 French soldiers, an imperious Duchess, a long-lost daughter, or a lovesick suitor for dinner, we hope you have enough potatoes to go around this Thanksgiving. 🥔 ❤️ (📷 : Michael Brosilow)

@SilvestriWoman Happy Birthday! So glad you enjoyed JENUFA — thanks for celebrating your special day with us.

Thank you @LyricOpera for an incredible birthday gift - an opera that I’d yet to see in 50+ years of opera-going. Jenufa was spectacular & Davidsen’s debut was one for the ages. You’re doing Carol & Ardis proud!

Lise Davidsen makes a stunning @lyricopera debut in Jenůfa. Read our review below! 👇 | ✍️ @DeannaIsaacs chicagoreader.com/arts-culture/p…

I'm really looking forward to performing with the 🇫🇷fighting 21st 🇫🇷 (and my amazing @LyricOpera colleagues!) again, this SUNDAY!! We're in the last half of the run now, so if you're anywhere nearby and you haven't made it out to see us yet, it ✨won't last forever!!! ✨

If you're attending tonight's performance of JENŮFA (11/18), please allow extra travel time. The Magnificent Mile Lights Festival will take place on Michigan Ave from Walton to Wacker from 5:30PM - 9:00PM, resulting in street closures on Michigan, Upper Columbus, and Randolph.

@RomaPete @Brownleetenor @Chi_Lyric_Orch @speranzascapp So glad to hear you enjoyed THE DAUGHTER OF THE REGIMENT — and your first trip to Lyric! We hope you’ll join us again soon. 💕

@Brownleetenor Add in great work from Alessandro Corbelli, Ronnita Miller and @Chi_Lyric_Orch under @speranzascapp and you have a perfect night at the opera. My first visit to @LyricOpera couldn’t have been any better. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The first time @Lisette_Oropesa sang, I swooned. Every time thereafter she brought tears to my eyes. A pleasure, a privilege, to be able to hear such singing. @LyricOpera
