The Anonymous Lover (L’Amont Anonyme) by Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint George Heather Dudenbostel, Director | Mark Davies, Music Director | Emma Beha, Choreographer Join WWU Opera in Las Vegas for this hilarious, all-ages, 1980s-inspired adaptation of The Anonymous Lover by Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges. 

The story centers around Léontine, a widow disenchanted with the idea of love, but nonetheless ardently pursued by a secret admirer. Events unfold at Léontine’s Chapel of Love in Las Vegas, where our cynical leading lady is hosting a wedding for her niece Jeannette.
