While weather didn't seem to be on our side at first, it ended up being a beautiful night to return to the Midweek Market in Oak Park last Wednesday. Wearing their new "Verismo Opera Club" t-shirts, the singers came out to sing - rain or shine.
After the other singers opened the event, Theresa Egan and Emily Becker sang beautifully for the remaining outdoor performance.
Bradley Schuller, tenor sang an aria from his upcoming role of Rodolfo in La Bohème. Luckily, we were provided a tent to protect us from the downpour.
La Bohème is being performed this Friday, August 13 (7:30 pm) and August 15 (3 pm).
Happily waiting out the rain under the Verismo tent (left to right):
