Lonely Planet review for Lyric Opera of Chicago

By taking on a premiere of William Bolcom’s A Wedding (an adaptation of a Robert Altman movie) for its 50th anniversary, the Lyric Opera showed its stripes. The seasons of this truly great modern opera company are popular with subscribers, who fill the ornate Civic Opera House for a shrewd mix of common classics and daring premieres from September to March. If your Italian isn’t up to snuff, don’t be put off; much to the horror of purists, the company projects English ‘supertitles’ above the proscenium.
