The Consul will star Boston-based soprano Joanna Porackova in the role of Magda Sorel. She performed the same role recently at the Washington National Opera. Lucrezia Borgia will feature Barbara Quintiliani, also locally based, who sang Luisa Miller with the company last season.
L'ê_toile, a once-obscure operetta that is enjoying a wave of popularity, will be presented in an original production directed by Scott Edminston. The cast includes soprano Heather Buck.
