LAKE FOREST, IL — This August, North Shore residents will not have to travel downtown to experience the soaring majesty of grand Italian opera. The Concert Opera of Greater Chicago (COGC) is bringing Giuseppe Verdi’s monumental historical masterpiece, Don Carlo, directly to Lake Forest.

<ul><li>Don Carlo (The conflicted Prince): Alain Arvelo, tenor</li><li>Elisabeth of Valois (The tragic Queen): Vera Bowser, soprano</li><li>Princess Eboli (The scheming noblewoman): Paula Schaefgen, mezzo-soprano</li><li>Rodrigo (The loyal friend): Thomas Hall, baritone</li><li>King Philip II (The formidable monarch):&nbsp;Alvaro Ramírez, bass</li><li>The Grand Inquisitor (The terrifying zealot): Andrew Boisvert, bass</li></ul>
The opera will be sung in its original Italian with clear English supertitles projected above the stage, making the gripping story perfectly accessible to both lifelong opera lovers and first-time attendees.
To create a truly exceptional and welcoming evening out for the local community, all ticket purchases include complimentary intermission savories and refreshments, making it the perfect summer date night or weekend family outing.
