Adès collaborates with director Robert Lepage (The Met’s Ring Cycle) and Ex Machina to create an operatic version of Shakespeare’s original play. The New York Times calls Thomas Adès’s masterpiece “one of the most inspired, audacious and personal operas to have come along in years.” Robert Lepage’s fantastical production offers a superb cast, headed by the charismatic baritone Simon Keenlyside as Prospero. The Financial Times lauds the performance’s “rare virtuosity… Keenlyside sang with sensitive force.”
Other cast members include soprano Audrey Luna as Ariel, tenor Alan Oke as Caliban, tenor Alek Shrader as Ferdinand and mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard as Miranda.
