It’s “Billy Budd’s” final day on our stage — so naturally, we’re sharing an excerpt of @johnchest singing about Billy Budd’s final day! You still have time to see what the San Francisco Chronicle calls “the opera of 2019.” But hurry! Last show is at 2 p.m. https://t.co/EZYfjcEyXp

Curtain photos from last night’s fourth performance of #BenjaminBritten’s #BillyBudd at .@sfopera. Only two more chances to hear this stellar ensemble cast with baritone @johnchest in the title role. #BillyBuddSF

[Merola Opera Program @merolaopera]

“Striking a balance between boldness and vulnerability, easy-on-the-eyes.. @johnchest (#Merola ‘09) made a splendid impression in his @SFOpera debut.” “William Burden (’91) was a compellingly pitiable Capt. Vere.” - @sfexaminer raves about Billy Budd. https://t.co/ZrpehfrD18

[Elizabeth Bowman 🎭 @lizziebowgirl]

"Striking a balance between boldness and vulnerability, easy-on-the-eyes #baritone @JohnChest made a splendid impression in his @SFOpera debut as #BillyBudd...w/ warmth & smooth resonance, Chest’s Billy would make anyone fall for him" -@sfexaminer https://t.co/A7jGT8i0Aa #opera

[Elizabeth Bowman 🎭 @lizziebowgirl]

"The title role was sung with winning exuberance by baritone @JohnChest... Chest’s singing gave Budd an exciting presence, almost every vocal line imbued with vitality." - @SFCV #review of #BillyBudd https://t.co/kUtGD9j4b8 #Britten #baritone #opera #operanews

[San Francisco Opera @SFOpera]

Our two leading men of September, @johnchest and Pene Pati, are taking a break offstage at #SFOperaInThePark. Catch them at the War Memorial Opera House in two must-see productions: “Billy Budd” and “Romeo and Juliet!”

[San Francisco Opera @SFOpera]

Tonight, set sail on enemy waters — not knowing if the bigger threat is aboard your very ship.

It's opening night for Benjamin Britten's masterpiece "Billy Budd," with an all-star cast featuring @johnchest, William Burden, and @vanhorncvh. Don't miss it! https://t.co/hfTi6xu5Bd

[Matthew Shilvock @MatthewShilvock]

The @sfwarmemorial literally shaking with energy in the sitzprobe of @SFOpera Billy Budd. The intensity of this piece is thunderous. Six percussionists plus four onstage drummers gives you an indication of what’s in store as the HMS Indomitable prepares for battle.

[San Francisco Opera @SFOpera]

Catch your first glimpse at our new Billy Budd — baritone @johnchest! For the first time in a decade, John returns to the San Francisco, this time making his company debut in Benjamin Britten's masterpiece, #BillyBuddSF. See him onstage starting Sept. 7! https://t.co/hfTi6xu5Bd

[Matthew Shilvock @MatthewShilvock]

From today’s piano dress of Billy Budd @sfopera. This is a production that pulls you all the way in. You will feel onboard the HMS Indomitable and in the middle of the knife edge tension of 18th century seafaring. It’s breathtaking.

[John Chest @johnchest]
