In March, we present Donizetti’s bel canto masterpiece Lucia di Lammermoor. Opera’s most famous mad scene in our extraordinary, intimate venue? We might just have to insist that the audience sign safety waivers.
The famous mad scene in Lucia di Lammermoor was originally conceived to incorporate the use of the glass armonica, an instrument invented by Benjamin Franklin. We are thrilled that one of the world’s top glass armonica players, Dennis James, will be joining us for this production. Mr. James will also offer a brief demonstration of the instrument as part of the pre-performance lecture.
