| Sacco and Vanzetti |
|
|
The After Dinner Opera Company presents the New York and Orchestral Staged Premiere of the opera SACCO AND VANZETTI, begun by Marc Blitzstein and completed by Leonard Lehrman. Directed by Benjamin Spierman and conducted by Lehrman, the production features a cast of 35 singers and musicians. Christopher Remkus appears as Sacco and Michael Niemann as Vanzetti, two Italian immigrants at the center of a notorious case that drew worldwide attention. Wrongly accused of murder, the men were executed in 1927, only to be exonerated 50 years later. At the time of Blitzstein's tragic and unexpected death in 1964, the opera was left unfinished. Lehrman's completion was approved by the Blitzstein Estate and received raves at an earlier concertante premiere. |
