“A Toast to Opera” will celebrate the rich history and enduring beauty of the timeless art form of opera! The Lyric Opera Circle’s Lyric Opera Ball, under the direction of Co-chairmen Deanna Diebolt and Sharon Barry, promises to be an elegant affair with curated silent auction items, pop-up opera performances, dinner, and dancing to the sounds of Lost Wax. The April 20th gala will be held at the Muehlebach Tower of the Kansas City Marriott Downtown. Carmen Sabates is serving as the Lyric Opera Circle president. Proceeds support the Lyric Opera of Kansas City.
