WEL Wish: Lionel C., Opera Performance

On September 29, 2016, as part of Wesley Enhanced Living Doylestown’s WEL Wishes program, resident Lionel C. fulfilled his lifelong dream of performing opera for an audience, and was able to do it as a duet with professional opera singer, Erin Alcorn.

Prior to their performance, the duo rehearsed by phone for many weeks, and only in person for a few minutes before the actual performance.   To date, the video has been viewed over seven thousand times!  Lionel is looking forward to a repeat performance on Valentine’s Day, 2017!
