The Last Castrato
Gap in the Wall Productions presents a new play by Guy Fredrick Glass, directed by John Henry Davis.
"The Last Castrato" tells the story of Alessandro Moreschi, the last of that unique, almost forgotten group --the castrati-- who were damaged at a young age by forces beyond their control. The play is set at a Vatican that has been uneasily thrust into the twentieth century, as Moreschi becomes the only member of his line to preserve his voice for the newly-invented phonograph. Through his personal journey, as he battles bureaucracy, homophobia, and raw political ambition, he grapples with his sexual identity to find out who he really is. Told with humor, passion, and the music of the castrati, "The Last Castrato" is a celebration of the triumph of the human spirit over oppression
