Roscommon Arts Centre is thrilled to announce that Opera Theatre Company's latest production, The Diary of Anne Frank, comes to Roscommon Arts Centre for one performance only on Tuesday 28th September.
Sung in English, the opera uses Anne's own words to illustrate different episodes from life in hiding, finding eloquent expression in the compelling score. The young teenager's writings provide a poignant and personal insight into a world event, chronicling an important era in European history from the viewpoint of someone living through its reality.
With Andrew Synnott conducting, co-direction by Ingrid Craigie and Annilese Miskimmon, and design by Nicky Shaw, this compelling production should not be missed.
At the recent launch of OTC's nationwide tour of Grigory Frid's The Diary of Anne Frank in The Abbey Theatre, the chair of Opera Theatre Company, Virginia Kerr, announced that Opera Theatre Company (OTC) will close at the end of the year to make way for the formation of a new National Irish Opera company. "It is a time of premieres and finales: it is the Irish premiere of Grigory Frid's The Diary of Anne Frank, it is soprano Ani Maldjian's Irish debut, it is co-director's Ingrid Craigie's first sojourn into opera but it is also a finale in that this will be OTC's last production." More information and booking through Roscommon Arts Centre's box office 090 6625824.
