Suor Angelica
(2026)

Puccini
Suor Angelica
Opera 5

In the title role, Rachel Krehm was extremely effective in mining the deep sadness in this role. Her breakdown after learning of her child’s death was completely believable. Her ample soprano soared through the role’s big moments, with some really impressive moments up top.

Gianmarco Segato - La Scena Musicale
Suor Angelica is a tour-de-force by Rachel Krehm. She makes you care about a problematic character that Puccini evidently loved. And so, clearly, does Krehm. It’s about the singing, inevitably, and Krehm does what opera and Puccini demands — make you love and care about Angelica and her child, note by note.

Marc Glassman - Ludwig van Toronto
Rachel Krehm as Suor Angelica, was, of course, the star of the show. I have it on good authority from my plus-one that the soprano had captured her undivided attention before it even become apparent she was playing the lead role. Just to be clear, she had mine too, but I already knew which part she was playing. She exuded anxiety and grief, controlled at first and gradually cracking the surface until a fiery and climactic confrontation in her scene with Szabo. Her performance kept on building from there: first a turbulent and piercing display of loss, followed by deadly despair, and finally reaching harmonious release in the finale, backed by the rest of the sisters.
