Fine Arts Building, Fine Arts Theatre

UGA Opera Theatre will be presenting “Postcard from Morocco” by Dominick Argento. This work is the most performed American Chamber Opera in the world.

“Postcard from Morocco” is melodic, featuring a variety of musical flavors borrowing from ragtime and popular music along with a deft parody of Wagner’s Flying Dutchman.

The cast includes Eleftherios Chasanidis (DMA ’23), Xiaohan Chen (DMA ’24), Andrew Ellis (DMA ‘23), Samantha Mishima Friedman (DMA ’24), Robert Harrelson (DMA ’25), and Sara Lynn Storm (MM ’23), and introduces Xandrya Edwards (DMA ’23) and Brooks Todd (BM ’24)

The production will be directed by Daniel Ellis (Cosi fan Tutte, Faust) and conducted by returning guest artist Maestro Hilary Griffiths (Cosi Fan Tutte). Cheri Prough DeVol will be designing the set, lighting, and video projections. Kathryn Wright will serve as vocal coach.
