Following its success, the Met announced that Liverman will star in Anthony Davis’ X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X, premiering Fall 2023. Additionally, Liverman has performed Rambaud in Le Comte Ory with Seattle Opera, Pantalone in The Love of Three Oranges at Opera Philadelphia, and Dizzy Gillespie in Charlie Parker’s Yardbird at English National Opera.
