Bard SummerScape Presents

The Silent Woman

Wednesday, July 27, 2022
Fisher Center, Sosnoff Theater
2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT/GMT-4
(Die Schweigsame Frau)

Considered Strauss’s only true comic opera, this rarely performed work is by turns elegiac and incisively witty. The brilliantly written libretto by Stefan Zweig (loosely based on the Renaissance play by Ben Jonson) features a madcap cast of characters in a variety of guises. The imaginative and colorful production by Christian Räth (Das Wunder der Heliane, SummerScape 2019) featuring a stellar group of performers will be sung in German with English supertitles.
