Stephen Wadsworth directs the play about a late-career Callas bullying and nurturing classical voice students at a master class in the 1970s. (She also offers her artistic point of view and great swaths of her personal life, including her affair with Aristotle Onassis.) It's a work of fiction inspired by her real classes at the Juilliard School.
The production opened on July 7. Read Playbill.com's On Opening Night column here. Master Class also features Olivier Award nominee Sierra Boggess (as Sharon Graham), Clinton Brandhagen (as Stagehand), Jeremy Cohen (as Emmanuel Weinstock), Drama Desk Award winner Alexandra Silber (as Sophie De Palma) and Garrett Sorenson (as Anthony Candolino).
