Interview: Kelley Rourke " Librettist, Translator, Dramaturg and Prize Winner
Kelley Rouke was driving when she received a text from Mark Campbell informing her that she was the winner of Opera America’s 2024 Campbell Opera Librettist Prize. Her reaction? She answered, “Stop it! It’s mean. Never joke about that!” because she couldn’t quite digest that she’d been chosen for the prize. “There are so many people doing great work that I couldn’t believe I’d been singled out,” she modestly insists.
