Don't miss this performance of Gluck’s last significant opera, based on the ancient Greek play by Euripides. Internationally acclaimed American mezzo-soprano Kate Lindsey returns to WCO as Iphigénie. Baritone Theo Hoffman performs as Oreste directly after his role debut at Opéra Comique in Paris this season. Baritone John Moore revisits Washington as Thoas after his appearance in the title role in Washington National Opera's The (R)evolution of Steve Jobs last season. And Cuban-American tenor Fran Daniel Laucerica makes his WCO debut as Pylade.
