Beethoven's Fidelio at Atlas Performing Arts Center

DCTheatreScene - Highly Recommended

"...Meanwhile, the rest of the ensemble stand outside the action of the story and give us commentary on the moral and the power of love in a lighthearted, joyous manner. "And for those of you still single/Gosh, we hope you find a mate." Echoes of musical phrases from Beethoven's great choral "Ode to Joy," in the Ninth Symphony, also can be heard. Message? Put up a fierce fight to preserve our freedom from tyranny. Praise the resourceful devotion of Leonore, who liberates her husband, Beethoven's hope for all of mankind. Better yet: Cheer for the In Series for bringing back Beethoven alive and thrilling!"
