Please join us for a special performance of Leoncavallo’s Pagliacci presented by The Austin Lyric Opera.  This famously tragic play-within-a-play tells the heartbreaking story of betrayal and jealousy when Canio discovers his wife has eyes for another actor.

Our operatic journey will begin with a special pre-performance talk entitled “When Art Mirrors Reality” by Joshua T. Miller. Mr. Miller is currently in his second year of graduate studies in the Butler Opera Center at The University of Texas at Austin. Prior to moving to Texas, Miller was the Director of Vocal Studies and Assistant Professor of Music at Concord University where he taught studio voice and directed the university’s opera program. His most recent stage directing credits include The Pagliacci Project, a guerilla street opera for Austin Lyric Opera.
