  • FOCUS on 3 PRODUCTIONS I – Phaedra II– La Fin De L'amour
    FOCUS ON 3 PRODUCTIONS I – Phaedra II– La Fin de l’Amour (The End of Love) III– Chto (What) I– PHAEDRA Phaedra by Jean Racine staged by Luc Bondy Théâtre Vidy à Lausanne Théâtre de l'Odéon – Festival d’automne Producers: Théâtre Vidy-Lausanne, ETE Kunstfestspiele Reckling hausen Europƒisches Festival, Wiener Festwochen, Theater der Nationen im Rahmen der Zÿrcher Festspiele, Odéon-Théâtre de l'Europe, Festival d'Automne à Paris PRESS REVIEW 1) Lausanne PHAEDRA, LOVE ON THE RUN. In Lausanne, Luc Bondy stages a simple and luminous show. A matter of skin. Strong, [Valérie Dréville] is also a fragile Phaedra, almost a child in the hands of a disquieting Œnone, performed by Dominique Frot. […] But Dominique Frot is also a perfectly attentive partner, a true sister of the night – nothing in the acting of her partner escapes her. René Solis, Libération, March 3, 1998 An exceptional cast, a brilliant production: Racine triumphs in Lausanne Valérie Dréville is astonishing in the title role but never obscures the remarkable performances of the other actors. Œnone,(Dominique Frot) is quite striking as well. An embodiment of possession. A frightening, demonic, gambolling goblin, able to materialize from the depths of horror. A “politician”… Jean-Louis Perrier, Le Monde, Feb. 28, 1998 LOVE UNTO DEATH It’s one of the most awaited productions of this new season: Luc Bondy stages Racine’s Phaedra in Lausanne Astonishing trio Valérie Dréville (Phaedra) and Dominique Frot (Œnone) are just overwhelming. [Dominique Frot] through Oenone, represents all the monstrosity and all the love that can coexist in the heart of a confidante.

EFFECTS OF THE MET: LIVE IN HD ON THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF OPERA IN AMERICA by Anna K. Wigtil A THESIS Presented to the Faculty of The Graduate College at the University of Nebraska In Partial Fulfillment of Requirements For the Degree of Master of Music Major: Music Under the Supervision of Professor Pamela Starr Lincoln, Nebraska December, 2020 EFFECTS OF THE MET: LIVE IN HD ON THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF OPERA IN AMERICA Anna K. Wigtil, M.M. University of Nebraska, 2020 Advisor: Pamela Starr The Met: Live in HD satellite broadcasts of live opera performances began in 2006 and have since become popular with audiences around the world. While this could be an excellent avenue to democratize opera and make it available to new audiences, the available data indicates that most Live in HD viewers are already opera enthusiasts and have previously attended live opera performances. This thesis examines the history of the Metropolitan Opera’s broadcasting efforts, the demographics of American opera audiences, trends in Live in HD’s repertoire, and strategies to increase Live in HD’s appeal to a broader, more diverse audience that can revitalize opera’s popularity in the United States.
