The Atlanta Opera has announced its Studio Players, who will be a part of the 2020-21 Molly Blank Big Tent Series.

The Studio Players will include soprano Susanne Burgess, mezzo-soprano Gabrielle Beateag, tenor Brian Vu, baritone Joseph Lattanzi, baritone Joshua Conyers, and bass-baritone Calvin Griffin.

“For opera singers to grow and reach their greatest potential, they must work and they must perform. The Studio Players creates those opportunities,” said Tomer Zvulun, the Carl W. Knobloch, Jr. General & Artistic Director at The Atlanta Opera, in a press release. “At the same time, these singers give us greater flexibility to properly cast and perform our 2020-21 season.”

In addition to performing throughout the season, the Studio Players will also receive mentoring and coaching from the Company Players roster.
