Fidelio Opera Insights at Lyric

Embark on a journey into Beethoven's only opera, Fidelio through a lens of justice, revolution and liberation. We invite you to a compelling panel discussion moderated by Lyric Unlimited Scholar-in-Residence, Dr. Antonio C. Cuyler, where we explore the opera's powerful and shockingly contemporary themes alongside Fidelio cast members and representatives from Illinois Prison Project.

When: Wednesday, October 2 at 4:30 PM
Where: Civic Opera House, Ardis Krainik Theater

The discussion at Lyric will take place directly after the Wednesday October 2 matinee performance of Fidelio, within the theater, and is open to all Fidelio ticket holders. Those who are not attending the October 2 performance of Fidelio are invited to attend a pre-conversation reception with light refreshments in the Malott Room at 3:30 PM, and may then proceed to the theater following the matinee for the panel discussion from 4:30-5:30 PM.
