Almost a one women show. Its not easy when done well. And this one was done well. Although the singing is not exactly operetic it was believeable as a play and a good one. Well done. One error ate at me and that was the incorrect pronuncation of Skataah. Ms. Callas should know her Greek. Its only used twice but for me it sent a chill up my spine. I wanted the real Callas and got the incredable simulation.

If you have not seen this show, SEE IT!!! Don't be intimidated if you don't like Opera, this show has something for everyone and it is executed expertly. The cast is marvelous and keeps you entertained every step of the way. Terrance McNally would be proud.

As usual, Michaela Greeley was wonderful as Maria Callas. The play seemed to run a bit faster than I remember but all the elements were there. The rest of the cast did an admirable job.
