Summer’s most anticipated crescendo is here. Lyric Opera of Chicago invites the city to its cherished end-of-summer ritual: Sunday in the Park with Lyric. On Sunday, August 23, at 7p.m., the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park will transform into a vibrant stage where the power of the human voice meets the warmth of a Chicago summer night — and where thousands of Chicagoans will gather to celebrate the new Chicago cultural season. The evening promises a surge of fresh energy as the stage welcomes the new Ensemble of The Patrick G. and Shirley W. Ryan Opera Center, Lyric’s world-renowned artist-development program. For more information on Sunday in the Park with Lyric, visit lyricopera.org/millennium.
