It’s hard to remember an Opera Atelier production that has come with as much anticipation, and out of as much perseverance, as its latest creation,
Something Rich & Strange.
The pastiche-style program of arias and ballets, both baroque and brand new, was originally slated for October, opening the Toronto opera company’s 35th anniversary season at Koerner Hall. It was to be shown to a small audience of 50, in accordance with the COVID-19 restrictions at the time, and livestreamed to a larger audience online.
