Boston Lyric Opera is set to present Rodgers & Hammerstein’s “Carousel.”

The new production will be directed by BLO Artistic Associate Anne Bogart and conducted by BLO Music Director David Angus.

The cast will include Brandie Sutton as Julie Jordan, Edward Nelson as Billy Bigelow, Jamie Barton as Nettie Fowler, Anya Matanovič as Carrie Pipperidge, and Omar Najmi as Enoch Snow.

The cast will be rounded out by Markel Reed and M. Lee Pelton.

In a statement, Stanford Calderwood General Director & CEO Bradley Vernatter said, “Rodgers & Hammerstein’s ‘Carousel’ is steeped in the grand traditions of opera, woven through with soaring melodies, sweeping orchestrations and deeply human drama. ‘Carousel’ is closely tied to the lineage of American opera. It thrives on rich emotional depth, complex characters and a timeless, transcendent score. Decades later, its poignancy and musical grandeur still resonate, proving that its heart beats not just with Broadway rhythm, but also with the pulse of something even greater—it’s an enduring, lyrical epic.”

“Carousel” will run from April 4 to 13, 2025 at the Emerson Colonial Theatre.
