2018 - World premiere of Tim Hinck's new opera, Red Bird. Red Bird, will trace the life of a wheelchair-bound, elderly, homeless man named Richard. As the opera jumps back and forth throughout Richard’s life, the story also reveals how his family and colleagues deal with his decline into mental illness, and ultimate redemption.
Eve Apart premiered in Pittsburgh on May 22 (8pm), 23 (8pm) & 24 (2pm), 2015 at the Elsie H. Hillman Auditorium at Kaufmann Center (www.hillhouse.org).
I'm excited to be a part of two Opera Theater of Pittsburgh Summerfest productions this summer: Flora Dart in A New Kind of Fallout and Joe Boyd in their role-reversed version of Damn Yankees.
