Lyric Opera of Chicago

Founded in 1954, Lyric is dedicated to producing and performing consistently thrilling, entertaining, and thought-provoking opera with a balanced repertoire of core classics, lesser-known masterpieces, and new works; to creating an innovative and wide-ranging program of community engagement and educational activities; and to developing exceptional emerging operatic talent.
During the Lyric's Autumn Season, the Sumptuous Civic Opera House, which first opened in 1929, is filled to capacity.
On opening nights, almost all of the city's Elders will be present. Indeed, unless one has connections, tickets are very difficult to come by.
