Show:
Lehar's The Merry Widow
Centennial Hall - 8pm
Description:
Franz Lehar's glittering Merry Widow offers an imperishable bouquet
of fresh melodic blossoms, which adorn a story at once romantic, exotic,
and touchingly nostalgic. Pontevedro, that 19th Century middle European
never-never land has peopled its Paris embassy with ever-young, almost
over-civilized aristocrats, as pompous as they are sophisticated, as silly
as they surely are endearing, and all capable of bursting into ingratiating,
unforgettable lyricism at the drop of a glove of a fan. A brilliant, attractive
young cast of Canadians joins the wonderful UWO choruses and London Pro
Musica, to bring you a delectable evening.
