Master Class
3704 Sixth Avenue, San Diego, 92103
Cost: $15 - $35
In 1971 and 72, Maria Callas taught a master class at the Julliard School of Music to aspiring young singers. In Terrence McNally's uneven script, she's past her prime in art and love. Her voice is slipping and her great love, Aristotle Onasis, married Jackie Kennedy. She begins sea-breezy and distant as a star, but the music awakens memories she can't repress. Ion Theatre's pen had a "give it a week" quality. The pacing lagged and spontaneity felt forced. Sandy Campbell was ready, though. She wavers between assertion and confession and her two, aria-like soliloquies ring true. Worth a try.
