Humility is an underrated quality

Nunn: Humility is an underrated quality  FacebookTwitterEmail I think the driving factor behind my interest in these shows is two-fold. First, I have a great admiration for people who conduct really good interviews. Being a journalist, I know how difficult it can be to get people to open up. Everyone has an internal guard of some sort and navigating that can be a challenge. However, a really good interview delves much deeper and often contains raw emotions and thought provoking perspectives. There is a balancing act with an interview where you throw out the softball questions to get the framework, but you also go deeper to a place that can sometimes make people uncomfortable and unnerved.

Theatre Review: A Gilbert and Sullivan Drawing Room by Victorian Lyric Opera Company

“A Gilbert and Sullivan Drawing Room” cleverly combines a Zoom meeting, the lives of G&S, and musical highlights from past VLOC productions, such as the close to “The Gondoliers,” pictured above.

In what it bills as its first film, Victorian Lyric Opera Company of Rockville, Maryland, has produced “A Gilbert and Sullivan Drawing Room.” Directed by Erica Ferguson with cinematography by Scott Nunn, this production uses an online Zoom meeting as a framing device. The show begins as a video meeting between an uninterested teenager, her eccentric grandfather, and several other characters playing a trivia game together. This serves as the point of entrance to the main story, which is a fabulous exploration of the lives and careers of the famous duo, lyricist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan.
