    Robert Aubrey Tuggle (Memorial Note)

    Robert Aubrey Tuggle (Memorial Note) Robert Tuggle died January 24, 2016 from a stroke. He was the long time archivist of the Metropolitan Opera since 1983. He authored “The Golden Age of Opera” published in 1983. At his death he was working on a biography of Kirsten Flagstad, the Norwegian – born Wagnerian soprano. Born in Martinsville, VA, he graduated from the Martinsville High School. He majored in music at Princeton and was a member of Campus Club and active in the Theatre Intime. His senior thesis was on “Musical Characterization in Verdi.” After graduation, he served in the U.S. Army. The class is honored by his service to our country and extends condolences to his partner Paul Jeromack. Robert A. Tuggle (Obituary) Robert Tuggle, who as the longtime archivist of the Metropolitan Opera helped create a digital database that includes details from every performance since the Met opened with Gounod’s “Faust” on Oct. 22, 1883, died on Sunday in Manhattan. He was 83. The cause was complications of a stroke, his partner, Paul Jeromack, said. Mr. Tuggle was the opera’s director of archives for more than 34 years and the author of “The Golden Age of Opera,” published in 1983, with photographs by Herman Mishkin. At his death, he was working on a biography of Kirsten Flagstad, the Norwegian-born Wagnerian soprano. Mr. Tuggle was named archivist in 1981 after being director of education for the Metropolitan Opera Guild, a membership organization that supports the Met. Robert Aubrey Tuggle was born in Martinsville, Va., on April 17, 1932.

In our six seasons, we’ve innovated across all aspects of opera to show that the art form can pack a potent punch even when it is produced on a leaner budget. We are proud that The New York Times celebrated this core belief, Lady M calling our productions “icy vodka shots of opera instead of ladles of cream sauce.” an online fantasia of Verdi’s Macbeth May 11-20, 2020 Today, we are facing our biggest restriction yet—the inability to share opera in a physical space. The world is out of joint. We are devastated by the human toll of this crisis. We deeply feel the threat it poses to the livelihood of artists and of the This work is co-presented by The Curtis R.

    Programming; Providing an Environment for the Growth and Education of Theatre Professionals, Audiences and the Community at Large

    MAY 2014 WELCOME A few weeks ago, on April 30, 2014, the American the- atre lost a giant, and The Old Globe lost one of its most valued friends. Nicholas Martin’s relationship with this institution began when he acted here in King Lear in 1957, and it continues to this day as we present Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike in a production based on his original Broadway direction. The fifty seven year span of his Globe career saw him act in eighteen additional productions and direct six, most recently his acclaimed 2013 staging of Shaw’s Pygmalion. On the opening night of that production the Globe named him an Associate DOUG GATES Artist, an honor that he was as proud to earn as we were Managing Director Michael G. Murphy and Artistic Director Barry Edelstein. to bestow. Nicky, as he was known, loved San Diego and adored the Globe, but the Globe loved him more. At every level of the institution, from artists to staff to Board, he was cherished. He was an uproari- ously funny man with a room-filling laugh and a bright twinkle in his eye. His wit was scintillat- ing, and although it could be withering, too, it was never, ever mean-spirited. Nicky was a man of the theatre in the deepest sense: every single part of the process of making theatre thrilled him. His manner in rehearsal was always gentle and open-hearted, and he was fiercely devoted to his artistic collaborators and their work. He was a generous mentor of emerging talent and a loyal supporter of longtime colleagues.
