Long time readers of Inverness Forest Today know that I occasionally discuss local live theater productions. The Victorian Lyric Opera production of The Merry Widow starts today at the Fitzgerald Theater in Rockville. This is a magical, delightful production. It has great singing, dancing, and very funny dialog. Director Debbie Niezgoda brings the show to life by recreating the atmosphere of the Pontevedrian embassy in early 20th century Paris. The music bubbles and sparkles under the baton of artistic director and conductor Joseph Sorge.

The story
The cast and orchestra are so uniformly outstanding that it would be hard to single out specific performers for special praise. Instead I'll let you judge for yourself. Below are links to pictures and musical selections from the Victorian Lyric Opera production.
