Final Scene of Elmer Gantry, a new opera by Robert Aldridge with Libretto by Herschel Garfein. Elmer Gantry; Keith Phares, Sharon Falconer; Jennifer Rivera. Nashville Opera production directed by John Hoomes, conducted by William Boggs. In this scene at the end of the opera, Sharon's tabernacle is in burning, and Elmer tries to convince her to escape with him. She refuses and leads her "flock" into the light.
Too bad the last measures are cut off. :(

@ty2 in the movie the acting gets a little hammy and pretentious like an opera

Do you have any other videos? I would love to hear the first crowd scene with the full chorus, right before Sharon's entrance. And the revival scene at the end, before the fire. :) Thanks for posting these!
