MassOpera is proud to present a concert performance of Dan Shore’s Freedom Ride. The Company is thrilled to bring back Chicago Opera Theatre Music Director, Lidiya Yankvoskaya to conduct, and Emmy Award Winning and NAACP Award Nominee, Tazewell Thompson, to stage direct.  Both will lead the premiere production with Chicago Opera Theatre in early 2020.

Freedom Ride tells the story of Sylvie Davenport, a young student from New Orleans, as she is drawn into the Civil Rights Movement in the summer of 1961.

Jessica will be a member of a Chorus of Activists. TICKETS AND INFO.
