The Old Maid and the Thief

A Hand of Bridge

Approved

Enter the “theater of the mind” and explore the sights and sounds of the golden age of radio, when American families tuned in for everything from The Lone Ranger to Jack Benny, The Shadow, Ray Bradbury stories, and live performances by symphony orchestras and big bands. Director Edward Berkeley has fashioned a performance featuring parts of Norman Corwin’s The Anatomy of Sound, which serve to introduce two popular American radio operas by Menotti and Barber. The audience will also be treated to sound effects performed by the singers.

The Old Maid and the Thief is a dark comedy about questionable morals.

In A Hand of Bridge, two unhappily-married couples conduct a hand of bridge, while confessing some of their innermost fears and desires.

High fidelity opera by Menotti, Barber, From (2018/2018), Directed by Edward Berkeley,, Conductor Carolyn Watson, Michael and Ginger Frost Production Arts Building, Kansas City, United States
