Performances start Friday in Bloomington.
Bloomington is getting the world — yes, world — premiere of the first full-scale opera aboutbased on"The Diary of a Young Girl." Performances will be March 3, 4, 9 and 10 at the Indiana University Musical Arts Center.
Fagen squeezed through jagged hoops, in fact, to gain permission to do the opera about the young girl who wrote in her diary about what she and her family did for two years, beginning in 1942, while hiding in 450 square feet of space in what she called the"Secret Annex." Hanthorn is general director of the Atlanta Opera, which initially planned to produce"Anne Frank." Fagen is music director there. The Atlanta Opera has produced opera for more than four decades, employing distinguished singers, conductors, designers and directors.
"Anne’s story is definitely one of hope, even though her life ended tragically. Anne always talks about wanting to have a large effect on the world — she didn’t realize that she was doing exactly that as she wrote."
