Back for more?

While I was at rehearsal the other night, it occurred to me that quite a few members of the cast are returning to NJOT after having performed with us in the past. So if you are an avid New Jersey Opera Theater fan, you'll be familiar with at least a few of these singers:

Sharon Sweet (Turandot): 2006 gala, and presented masterclasses

Allan Glassman (Calaf): 2005 and 2006 gala, presented masterclasses, 2005 production of Il Trovatore (Manrico)

Barbara Shirvis (Liu): 2006 production of Falstaff (Alice Ford)

Anton Belov (Ping): 2005 production of Le nozze di Figaro (Count), 2005 Gala, and 2004 production of Don Giovanni (title role)

Stephen Lavonier (Emperor): 2006 productions of Gianni Schicchi (Spinelloccio) and Buoso's Ghost (Magistrate), and will sing in 2007 production of Romeo et Juliette (Mercutio).
