Happy Anniversary to The Charlatan!

8/29/2014

0 Comments

 
Today is the 116th anniversary of the premiere of John Phillip Sousa's The Charlatan!  Sousa's operetta premiered in Montreal on this date back in 1898.  Just a few days later on September 5th, The Charlatan opened at the Knickerbocker theater in New York, and it was performed in that theater 35 times.  

Guess what else is on September 5th?  VLOC's opening night of The Charlatan! So exactly 116 years after it's big debut in New York, the Victorian Lyric Opera Company will be debuting the same show right here in Rockville, Maryland.  Sousa himself would surely approve!

Don't have your tickets yet?  Act fast!  Call the F. Scott Fitzgerald Theater box office at 240-314-8690 to reserve your tickets.  And if you can't make it on September 5th for the anniversary and opening night, come on September 6th to catch the free pre-show lecture by University of Maryland Sousa scholar, Dr. Patrick Warfield!
