The Women by Thomas Pasatieri

Helen Park, director

In The Women we find a Freudian purgatory: A trio of voices blend and spar as a man's wife and mother fight over who is most deserving of his love.

The Telephone by Gian Carlo Menotti

Matthew Schulz, director

There's more than one ring at play in The Telephone, a sweet, comedic opera that challenges protagonist Ben to propose to his girlfriend Lucy in between all her interminable phone calls. Will he get a word in edgewise before his train leaves the station?

Trouble in Tahiti by Leonard Bernstein

Alexandra Saulsbury, director

The domestic unhappiness of young, suburban couple Sam and Dinah is at the center of Trouble in Tahiti—a sly commentary on consumerism's battle with love.

Kelly Kuo, conductor
