BWW BLOG: 2019 Summer Stock Regional Theatre Opportunities

As 2018 comes to a close, we are reflecting on those we have lost in the Broadway and theatre communities throughout the year.

Well, it's that time of the year again--time for a look-back on what was worth making note of during the calendar year that's about to come to an end. It's from a totally personal, subjective point of view, of course, but frankly that's the way opera-lovers always seem to like it, n'est-ce pas? The productions worth noting come from places big, small and in-between, from composers old as the hills to freshly minted or somewhere in between (likewise the performers), from traditional or boldly modern to simply stand up and sing.
