The Merry Widow

  • Toledo Opera, Valentine Theater 410 Adams Street Toledo, OH, 43604 United States (map)

Caroline will be returning to Toledo Opera to make her role debut for Valencienne in Merry Widow. She is thrilled to return to the place that has become very important to her, having done their resident artist program in 2019/20 which was cut short by the pandemic. 

Just in time for Valentine’s Day! The Merry Widow dances into our hearts with its beautiful melodies and witty storyline. Hanna Glawari is a vastly wealthy young widow from the small and poverty-stricken Balkan province of Pontevedro. Ambassador Baron Zeta is anxious that when Hanna re-marries, it is to a Pontevedrian and not a Frenchman, to keep her money in the country and save them all from ruin. J. Ernest Green conducts this bubbly delight while Jamie Offenbach and James M. Norman bring the light-hearted comedy to life. Starring as the merry widow is Alyson Cambridge (Toledo Opera’s Carmen) and BGSU voice professor Keith Phares as Count Danilo.
