"It's a magical reliving of a part of my life, this time playing a completely different role in the creation of a very different animal. I can't wait to see what happens."

"It's a tale of love and death, true love surviving in the face of physical decay and ultimate sacrifice. To bring this work to the opera stage has been a longtime dream."
