Lyric Opera of Chicago

Craig Irvin – Sam

Passion, political intrigue, witchcraft, and betrayal — here is opera at its grandest, with magnificent voices soaring at their fervent best!

Conspirators plot to assassinate the Swedish king, who shares a secret love with Amelia — and she’s none other than the wife of his most loyal protector! Friendship turns to rage when suspected infidelity is revealed! And a gypsy fortuneteller’s terrible prediction comes true as revelers dance at a masked ball.

Melodic genius, Verdi at his “blood-and-thunder” best, and operatic legend Renata Scotto directing!
