8/11/2012 – Review: From Brian Dickie’s Blog, long time General Director of Chicago Opera Theater – “I was at the American Chamber Opera’s Don Giovanni this evening.  This was a noble effort by what is essentially a co-operative of capable young people, and they are not untalented.  The chief star was the Zerlina, Miss Chicago 2012.  And she was no doubt a worthy winner.  But she can sing and perform too.  This is Marisa Buchheit – not just a pretty face though she has certainly that as well.” -Brian Dickie
