Gulfshore Opera will bring the dramatic beauty of Puccini’s Tosca to all three counties as the finale for Season 8. For a company known for pioneering, this full-scale production will also mark some wonderful and historic partnerships. April 23rd, 2022 begins the tri-county adventure at the Charlotte Performing Arts Center in Punta Gorda; April 26th, 2022 the production moves to the Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall in Fort Myers and concludes on April 29 that Artis—Naples in Naples, Florida. We will be the first regionally based production company to perform consecutively in these major venues.

Partnerships for this exciting production include the Tosca chorus featuring the Ft. Myers Mastersingers; and the orchestra for the productions in Ft. Myers and Naples – the Naples Philharmonic. This marks the first time since the 1987-88 season that the Naples Philharmonic has performed at the Barbara B. Mann, providing expanded audiences with the opportunity to not only enjoy this most beloved Puccini opera but experience the beauty of the orchestra that has made its home in Naples for over 25 years.

The titular role of Tosca will be performed by Robyn Marie Lamp, whose voice has been described as “robust, easily produced, golden but warm rather than metallic”. GO audiences have seen her in Season 7’s Viva Verdi and Songs of Love concerts, Passionate Puccini, and our Season 5 gala singing the title role of Lucrezia Borgia to great acclaim. She has appeared with Boston Lyric Opera and made her Carnegie Hall debut in her 2018-19 season singing the soprano solo in Ralph Vaughan-Williams’ Dona Nobis Pacem with Mid-America Productions.

The conductor for the production will be internationally acclaimed Jorge Luis Parodi. He has worked extensively in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia; including work with New York City Opera, The Atlanta Opera, The Juilliard School, Opera Tampa and the Lyric Opera of Chicago.
