REVIEWS FOR WOMAN WITH EYES CLOSED
“Director Kristine McIntyre and set designer Luke Cantarella placed the action in an art gallery with the stolen art hanging on the walls. Mona’s living room furniture is in the center of the gallery…without hearing the orchestral score, McIntyre and Cantarella conjured a visual environment as brilliant as Higdon’s musical one. This is not an opera with all of the i’s dotted and the t’s crossed, plot-wise or musically, but McIntyre stitched it together visually with efficiency and style” – Classical Voice America
“For all its propulsive energy, it was the slower moments of “Woman With Eyes Closed” that stood out, smart stage direction from Kristine McIntyre highlighting the complexity of Mona’s choice” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
