Claudia Winkler’s journey with Lyric began in November 1973. She was a French teacher at Highland Park High School when a parent of one of her students gave her a ticket to the Carmen dress rehearsal at Lyric. At the time, Claudia had only seen one opera, which she enjoyed, so she decided to attend.
As part of the overall rebranding effort that Lyric began in the fall, we are reconceiving parts of our donor membership levels. We’re pleased to unveil The Fund for Lyric!
Now that our 2020/21 Season has been announced, we decided to capture some of the buzz around Lyric’s offices! What are our staff members most looking forward to next season?
