| Julie Ziavras will sing the role of Anna in A Month in the Country, an opera by the distinguished
American composer Lee Hoiby. This exciting opera based on Turgenev’s tragic-comedy debuts in a new 2010 version
with an exciting cast. Sung in English, this version debuts with a reduced orchestration especially conceived for the Tusten Theater in Narrowsburg. First performed at the New York City Opera, it was called “a wonderful new opera, a loveliness steeped in sadness and, at once, lightness.” The New York Times was “engrossed by it, and by the opera's psychological insight and grateful vocal writing, both equally rare.” The bold new staging is by New York director, Brent Buell, whose dazzling theatrical productions have received critics' praise from New York to Las Vegas. Set Design: Laura Jellinek; Costumes: Melissa Schlachtmeyer, Production Manager: Joshua Scherr. Featured singers in this production include a leading international soprano, Patricia Johnson as Natalia Petrovna, a role originated by the legendary Patricia Neway, baritone David Trombley as Rakitin, Brittany Palmer as Vera, Christian Bowers as Belaev, Jeanne-Marie Lowell as Lisaveta, Julie Ziavras as Anna Semyonovna, Kirk Dougherty as Arkady and Steven Utzig as the Doctor. Performances are at The Tusten Theater, an historic, intimate theater located on the scenic Delaware River, 210 Bridge Street, Narrowsburg, NY 12764. Tickets are $25/$22 (seniors and students.)
