Victorian Lyric Opera Company's production La Périchole opens in just a few short weeks! The cast interview series is back and excited to share with you our wonderful cast and crew. First up one of our amazing orchestra members -- Bonnie Barrows! 

What's your role in La Périchole?
I play violin in the orchestra

What's your favorite part of the show?
We're still in orchestra only rehearsals at the moment, so I can't speak to the complete production itself. However, as a general comment on VLOC shows, my favorite parts are: (1) playing with a delightful group of musicians in the orchestra and (2) watching VLOC's talented actors giving their all on stage and having a great time while doing so.

What made you decide to get involved with this performance?
I've played in VLOC's orchestra for something like 30 years, so I suspect it's kind of a habit now:) Okay, seriously, I love playing with this group. It feels like family and I have a lot of fun both in rehearsals and during the shows, which is why I keep coming back. Joe Sorge is an excellent conductor who treats his musicians with respect and is an all around nice guy as well, traits that are always appreciated by orchestra members. 

When you're not performing in community theatre, what do you do? (job, hobby, family, etc.)
I currently work as a general manager at a small environmental health & safety firm in Ellicott City. I've sung in church choirs and served as a cantor for over 30 years. My wonderful husband and I have been married for 28 years and share our home with a two year old mixed breed dog (Abby) with a mind of her own. We are best known in our neighborhood as "Abby's mom and dad" and "the Halloween people" because we put together a yard display every year consisting of a cemetery populated by a crew of skeletons, ghouls, ghosts, and other spooky creations. Other creative activities include writing music and making zombie felties. 

Come hear Bonnie rock out in the orchestra February 24-26 & March 3-5 at the F. Scott Fitzgerald Theater. Tickets can be bought at the door or by calling the F. Scott Fitzgerald box office at 240-314-8690.
