Lyric Opera of Chicago presents CAROUSEL, opening April 10. Check out a sneak peek below!
Swaggering, carefree carnival barker, Billy Bigelow,(Steven Pasquale) captivates and marries the naive millworker, Julie Jordan (Laura Osnes). But all too soon, they fall on hard times and unbearable loss. Yet the power of love perseveres, as do the tuneful hits, in this masterpiece of American musical theater.
You'll hear "If I Loved You," "June Is Bustin' Out All Over," and "You'll Never Walk Alone" all set against the backdrop of an original new production from Lyric Opera, accompanied by the Lyric Chorus and Orchestra.
