Ozarks Lyric Opera Presents: THE BLACK RIDER: The Casting of the Magic Bullets 4.19.24
By TOM WAITS and WILLIAM S. BURROUGHS, this Midwest Premiere is an opera like you have never experienced before. Featuring a haunting, operatic score by the one and only singer-songwriter, and actor Tom Waits and words by legendary writer, William S. Burroughs, this Faustian musical fable had its stage premiere in 1990, and was followed by an eponymous album title released on Island Records by Waits in 1993. The opera centers on the character of Wilhem, a clerk, who is in love with a huntsman’s daughter, but must win her father’s approval by proving his worth as a marksman. He is offered magic bullets by Pegleg, the Devil, which he believes he can control. Based on elements of German folklore and Burroughs’ real-life “William Tell legend” tragedy, this RARELY produced opera presents an enigmatic tale of addiction and intrigue.

Ozarks Lyric Opera Presents: BEETHOVEN’S Fidelio 10.20.23
Ozarks Lyric Opera brings Beethoven’s only opera to the historic Gillioz stage for the very first time. Starring internationally-acclaimed tenor, Ric Furman, this masterful “rescue opera” tells the redemptive story of a woman’s heroic journey to save her husband from prison after being wrongfully detained by a political rival. This Springfield-area Premiere features the famous “Prisoner’s Chorus” and Beethoven’s typical lush, passionate music which was written at a time when he was experiencing his own Deafness and is now seen as a daring, Romantic Period tale of the composer’s own triumph over oppression. Free Valet parking provided by OLO. ______________________________________________________If you or a member of your party require ADA seating, please call us at 417-863-9491 to reserve your seats.Personal Responsibility Statement: The historic Gillioz prides itself on offering a diverse selection of arts entertainment.
