ON is proud to announce that baritone Michael Zegarski, whose credits include New York City Opera and Avery Fisher hall, will play the role of the King of Siam. Mr. Zegarski has a diverse career, with extensive experience in theater, concerts, and opera. In recent seasons, he has debuted roles in new operas at New York City Opera and Opera Omaha.
ON is thrilled to welcome Jacquelynne Fontaine, a rising soprano who will play the role of Anna. Ms. Fontaine was crowned Miss California in 2006, and since then, she has gone on to perform in concerts and operas in the United States and beyond, playing Donna Anna in Mozart’s Don Giovanni to great acclaim in Viterbo, Italy. Called a “charming and vivacious actress,” Ms. Fontaine recently made her operetta debut with the Pittsburgh CLO in Sigmund Romberg’s The Student Prince.
