Description
Terrence McNally's Master Class presents a unique glimpse into the world of opera, as the legendary Maria Callas puts aspiring singers through their paces in a series of master classes. This theatrical tour de force dramatizes the Callas phenomenon and explores the nature of her art. Through a series of moving and entertaining scenes, the play delves into the life and legacy of this iconic performer. With its unembarrassed and involving meditation on Callas's life, Master Class offers a thought-provoking exploration of the power of art to shape our world. First performed in 1995, the play has since been revived several times, including a notable production starring Tyne Daly in 2011-12.
