The Consul - GC Menotti

March 4th, 5th and 6th at 7.30pm, and 7th at 3pm.

Menotti's 20th Century masterpiece premiered on Broadway, and was the winner of the 1950 Pulitzer Prize for Music and the New York Drama Critics Circle awards as best Musical of 1950. Menotti's powerful opera tackles a subject that has once again, almost 75 years later, become a major issue as the population of poorer countries attempt to gain access to richer countries, many claiming to escape war and persecution. But the arguments and sentiments uttered by refugees and social commentators have remained unchanged. This is an opera both of its time and our time.
