As the year ends at “Theater Jones,” critic Gregory Sullivan Isaacs selected the Dallas Opera’s 2011 revival of Verdi’s “Rigoletto” as the number one classical music event of the year! However, he admits it was something of a coin toss, as he was just about equally knocked out by our epic production of Modest Mussorgsky’s “Boris Godunov” that ended last season. Here’s the complete lowdown from “Theater Jones” about the phenomenal year of North Texas performances, from organizations both large and small. Congratulations to each and every one who made the final cut, and to all those people and organizations who contribute so much to the life of the arts in these parts!
