West Edge Opera, 2013

West Edge Opera has quite a season coming up:
  • L'incoronazione di Poppea, by Monteverdi, with Christine Brandes, Emma McNairy, Ryan belongie, and Tonia D'Amelio, February 1, 2, and 3
  • Bonjour M. Gauguin, by Fabrizio Carlone, with Shawnette Sulker, April 6, 12, and 14
  • The Turn of the Screw, by Britten, featuring Laura Bohn, July 20, 26, and 28. Thank goodness, a local opera company remembers the Britten centenary.

You mean I can't expect Gloriana or Death in Venice or Billy Budd at SFO in 2013? :-)

In truth, I have no idea. Gockley cancelled a planned Peter Grimes a few years back; maybe he has some Britten up his sleeve. I just don't know....

Nothing on Opera Tattler's SFO futures page either.....another 6 months until the 2013 season announcement. Damn.

I'd love some Britten at SFO!!! Regardless, the West Edge season is great. I'm excited to check them out.
