2022|23 Impact Report
Lyric Opera of Chicago’s 2022/23 Season was extraordinarily successful, coupling ambitious artistry with exceptional generosity from its funders. Despite the headwinds facing nearly all arts organizations, Lyric began the first year of its five-year post-pandemic plan with widely noted world premieres and fiscal results surpassing projections.
Lyric continues to address the essential question: What does a modern opera company look like now? The organization is evolving in an uncommon direction, striving to be ever more agile and flexible, able to listen intently to our audience, and to respond. Quality, innovation, accessibility, and scale continued to be the factors driving our artistic choices.
The 2022/23 Season was filled with a variety of forms, languages, styles, and most important of all, stories.
