I had the pleasure of performing with the Gilbert and Sullivan Opera Company of Chicago again this year in their production of The Pirates of Penzance. Although we were scheduled to perform March 13-15th at The University of Chicago's Mandel Hall, we had to cancel due to concerns over the transmission of coronavirus.
We received this news during tech week, which led to an impromptu run and recording of the show for an audience of students and Hyde Park area friends - it was a whirlwind, "first and last night in costumes" evening!
The Gilbert and Sullivan Opera Company is currently looking into their options for putting on the show later this year. Whether or not I'm able to reprise my role as Edith for this production, I'm incredibly proud of the team for their hard work during this unusual time, and I hope to work with GSOC in the future!
