From Ann Milam: A number of you have enquired about a repeat performance of “Election Fever,” which we enjoyed here on August 19.
This was the world premiere of Linda Kitchen’s hilarious creation, also known as “Trump It,” a pastiche of melodies from some 20 operas with new lyrics about current election events. This wonderful romp featured Kimberly Giordano (Hillary Clinton , Nerys Jones (Megyn Kelly), Brendan Tuohy (a hilarious Trump in a very believable wig), Jose Rubio (Marco Rubio and Bernie Sanders) and Li-Tan Hsu (pianist).
These performers will reprise this production on Thursday, September 15, 7pm – 9pm at the Kirkland Performance Center. (350 Kirkland Ave, Kirkland, WA 98033)
The evening will also feature a second new composition by Linda Kitchen: Kimberly and Nerys will present the US première of “Flora & Dora” – post-Così fan tutte, with a twist in the tail!
