Acclaimed Michigan-born tenor, Glenn Seven Allen, returns to his home state to debut The American Tenor, a first-of-its-kind classical crossover concert blending opera and theater. Co-presented by the Great Lakes Center for the Arts (GLCFA), the November 2 performance, will also be recorded as a live album and video special.


Glenn Seven Allen has performed on Broadway and with major opera companies across the U.S. Now, with The American Tenor, Allen brings a new, high-definition production that bridges the gap between opera and theater. With comparisons to artists like Josh Groban and Andrea Bocelli, his performance offers something fresh, blending vocal mastery with theatrical storytelling of many familiar favorite songs.

Accompanied by a 22-piece orchestra composed of top Michigan-based musicians, Allen will perform new interpretations of beloved classics in Italian, French, and English. Highlights include U2’s With or Without You, sung in Italian, and Bring Him Home from Les Misérables, performed in French. He’ll perform the classic Michigan movie theme song from Somewhere in Time in English and Italian, as well as other traditional favorites, including Danny Boy, How Great Thou Art, and Nessun Dorma.

In addition to the music, Allen will offer personal insights and anecdotes throughout the concert, making the performance an intimate and engaging experience. The performance will also feature renowned Broadway conductor Isaac Hayward and a high-definition light show that brings theatrical flair to the concert stage.
