Performance Reviews

"One of Beecher’s great gifts is his mastery of understatement..."

Susan Scheid  |  Prufrocks dilemma  |  Mar 04, 2014

"...Metropolitan Opera unlikely to do any site-specific productions...it's up to...companies like Gotham to pick up the slack."

Richard Sasanow  |  Broadway World Review  |  Feb 27, 2014

"This company has come to embody a new aesthetic of opera, freed from the confines of an opera house or theater."

Paul Pelkonen  |  Superconductor

"This was the most successful of Gotham's operas in nontraditional spaces. The real suits of armor spoke as no stage set could. "

Heidi Waleson  |  Wall Street Journal  |  Mar 02, 2014

"Mr. Beecher's score had moments of arresting tension in a work whose recitatives and dramatic arc flowed succinctly."

Vivien Schweitzer  |  The New York Times  |  Feb 26, 2014
