Jenn Gambatese is the latest addition to the Lyric Opera's spring staging of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Carousel. The Broadway vet, who played Maria in Lyric's The Sound of Music last spring, will fill the role of Carrie Pipperidge—one she's previously sung at Connecticut's Goodspeed Opera House.

Gambatese joins the previously announced New York theater regulars Steven Pasquale and Laura Osnes, who will play Billy Bigelow and Julie Jordan, and opera star Denyce Graves, who's set to sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" as Nettie Fowler. The production, to be staged and choreographed by Rob Ashford, will run April 10–May 3.

Carousel is the third in Lyric's series of five Rodgers and Hammerstein stagings, following The Sound of Music and 2013's Oklahoma! They'll be followed by The King and I next year and South Pacific in 2017. Tickets for Carousel are on sale now.
