This Music Theater Works production of the classic operetta, originally adapted from Voltaire’s famed novel, finds the na?ve titular hero setting off to find his one true love, the beautiful Cunegonde, while enduring a series of comic misadventures that take him through wars, plagues, pirates, swindlers and even the Spanish Inquisition. Along the journey you’ll be treated to renditions of such memorable tunes as “Glitter and Be Gay,” “Make Our Garden Grow” and “The Best of All Possible Worlds,” with accompaniment from a 24-piece orchestra. Catch Candide at the Cahn Auditorium in Evanston.
