Rosena Hill Jackson signing autographs after stepping in for Reneé Fleming in the roll of Nettie at Carousel on Broadway

My wife Rosena Hill Jackson stepped in for Renee Fleming tonight in the role of Nettie at the Broadway production of Carousel in the middle of the second act. The audience gave her a big cheer and loud applause after her performance of “You’ll Never Walk Alone.” I am so proud of her. As a member of the Carousel orchestra, I was so moved that tears began to well up in my eyes as I heard Rosena sing. Everyone in the orchestra was blown away by Rosena’s singing. They all congratulated me. Thank you Rosena!!
