Il Ritorno d'Ulisse in Patria - Opera by C. Monteverdi (G. Badoaro)
August 13, 2022 7:30 PM - August 27, 2022 3:00 PM
In Italian, with English Surtitles. This adaptation of the end of Homer's classic Odyssey focuses on the story of Penelope as she patiently awaits the return of her husband Ulysses, and the rewards that the Gods bestow when one lives with true virtue. In this updated production, Ulysses' return home from war is set in the early 1930's. We find Penelope, clad in wide-leg trousers, has taken up Ulysses' bow and arrow during his long absence. As Ulysses is presumed dead by almost everyone, Penelope struggles against the advances of unwelcome suitors, conniving courtiers, and her own servants hoping to convince her to move on with her life. With the mischievous Gods meddling in the lives of mortals, we soon learn that Ulysses is in fact alive. Will Penelope, constant and true, be so easily convinced? |

Juana - East Coast Premiere by Carla Lucero and Alicia Gaspar de Alba (in Spanish with English Surtitles) JUANA is the professional premiere of a rare new Spanish-language opera which presents the life of Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, a famous Mexican intellectual, poet, artist, and nun who challenged the Inquisition in defense of womens rights. A stunning work of contemporary composition, Juana also represents a valuable addition to the Spanish-language opera canon |
