AUDIENCE REVIEW: My Undying Love: An Amusement

My Undying Love: An Amusement

Company:
American Chamber Opera

Performance Date:
June 21, 2019

Freeform Review:

On Friday, June 21st, I had the great pleasure of seeing the World premiere of Melissa Shiflett's opera My Undying Love: An Amusement.  What a wonderful evening - surprising and delightful.  I love how Shiflett wove the fanciful: the earnestness of play and the serious subject of death with challenging and compelling music and lyrics.  The shifts of tone were beautifully done by a splendid cast, talented in both singing and acting, on a set that was startingly fresh and deceptively simple.
