Opera Orlando takes audiences On Site for Werther, based on Goethe’s masterpiece novel of the same name. General director and Grammy award-winning baritone Gabriel Preisser sings the title role in this moving tale of a young man overwhelmed by his emotions, with mezzo-soprano Chelsea Laggan making her Company debut as Charlotte, the object of Werther’s obsession. With music direction by Nathan Cicero and stage direction by artistic director Grant Preisser, audiences will be immersed in the historic locale of the Sydonie Mansion. Get lost in this ravishing and heart-rending story in one of the most picturesque homes in Central Florida.
Valet and pre- and post-show receptions with appetizers, wine, and dessert included for all ticket holders.
Bus transportation is available to and from the Opera’s offices at 406 E Amelia Street. Bus departure times are 1 hour and 45 minutes before the performance and the ride over is anticipated to take 40 minutes each way.
