The Star Wars star will narrate MTT’s Grammy-winning From the Diary of Anne Frank. At once solemn and optimistic, this will be the musical melodrama’s first South Florida performance in over 30 years.
On October 5 and 6, actress Daisy Ridley will join your New World Symphony on stage at New World Center.
“Both the NWS Fellows and I are very grateful to welcome Daisy Ridley as the narrator for From the Diary of Anne Frank,” said NWS Artistic Director Stéphane Denève of the actress who has won praise for her starring roles in Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015), Young Woman and the Sea (2024) and her latest film Magpie (2024). "It's a profound honor to conduct MTT's remarkable work, which resonates deeply with the themes Daisy has personified in her films: courage, hope, and humanity.”
These special performances will not be livestreamed online or in SoundScape Park. If you haven’t already done so, reserve your tickets to Denève Conducts MTT and Shostakovich today while seats are still available.
