Cilea Scooplet

Janos Gereben on September 18, 2012

According to program notes in Europe, the San Francisco Opera is sharing a revival of David McVicar's production of Cilea's Adriana Lecouvreur with Barcelona's Gran Teatre del Liceu, so it should be coming to the War Memorial in the next year or two. Opera companies in London and Vienna are coproducers.

The opera was staged in San Francisco only in 1977, with Renata Scotto and Giacomo Aragall, and 1985, with Mirella Freni and Ermanno Mauro.
