Odyssey Opera, in collaboration with the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, presents a live concert experience featuring George and Ira Gershwin's political musicals, Of Thee I Sing and its sequel, Let 'Em Eat Cake. Conducted by Gil Rose, the performance showcases a talented ensemble including Heather Buck, Aaron Engebreth, Neal Ferreira, and the Odyssey Opera chorus. Both works explore themes of American politics, with Of Thee I Sing celebrated for its satirical edge and Pulitzer Prize win. Let 'Em Eat Cake, though less recognized, presents a comedic narrative involving presidential antics and political turmoil.
