About the Cast
Emmett O’Hanlon – a crossover artist making his LA Opera debut this season whose acclaimed portrayal of Lancelot at Barrington Stage elicited the comment that he “looks like he’s sculpted of oak and shakes the theater with his thunderous baritone” (Times-Union) – stars as Curly opposite Micaela Diamond—a Grammy and Tony nominee recently seen in the role of Lucille Frank in the 2023 Broadway production of Parade—singing the role of Laurey. Ado Annie will be sung by Jasmine Amy Rogers, a Tony nominee who won both Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards for her starring role in Boop! The Musical, and Will Parker by Tony nominee Andrew Durand, fresh from leading the Broadway production of Dead Outlaw. The cast is rounded out by Parvesh Cheena as Ali Hakim (TV roles in Outsourced and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), Jonathan Christopher as Jud Fry (Sweeney Todd), Ana Gasteyer as Aunt Eller (Wicked and The Rocky Horror Show), and Tony Award winner David Hyde Pierce as Andrew Carnes (Curtains).
