The Metropolitan Opera - Armida (Rossini)
Lincoln Theatre
Mount Vernon, WA
This mythical story of a sorceress who enthralls men in her island prison has inspired operatic settings by a multitude of composers, including Gluck, Haydn, and Dvor;k. Rene Fleming stars in the title role of Rossinis version, opposite no fewer than six tenors. Tony Award winner Mary Zimmerman returns to direct this new production of a work she describes as a buried treasure, a box of jewels. The fanciful and magical tale, Zimmerman says, has an epic, enchanted quality and a tremendous visual element.
