Follow Candide on a riotous journey as he searches for “the best of all possible worlds,” teeming with humor, unexpected twists, and profound philosophical reflections.

From Cunegonde’s over-the-top “Glitter and Be Gay” to the rarely heard comedic duet “We Are Women,” Bernstein’s iconic music offers a provocative perspective on life’s absurdities and the enduring pursuit of optimism.

South Florida Symphony Orchestra’s premiere of Candide follows Lonny Price’s 2004 hit production for the NY Phil, popularized by the PBS series, “Great Performances.” This semi-staged concert version features the orchestra, a dynamic cast of actor-vocalists, minimal sets and costumes, and a chorus performing together on stage.
