On this episode, soprano Anna Christy and baritone Steven LaBrie talk about their roles of Julie Jordan and Billy Bigelow in CAROUSEL. Steven and Anna discuss the big question most of us think when watching this show – why does Billy treat Julie the way that he does, and why does Julie stay? Anna also shares how the roles she's played on the Central City Opera House stage have shaped her as an artist, and Steven goes into how his first big role with a lot of spoken dialogue has been both challenging and immensely rewarding. They also share what they'd like audiences to take away from this summer's production of Rodgers & Hammerstein's CAROUSEL. Read the show notes for this episode here.
