Tchaikovsky
This spring, Harvard's Lowell House Opera presents Tchaikovsky's operatic thriller The Queen of Spades – complete with courtly intrigue, ghostly apparitions, and a deathly gambling problem. The opera follows the plight of Gherman, whose fascination with the beautiful (and betrothed) Liza turns into an obsession with learning her grandmother's secret strategy for winning at cards. When the elderly Countess dies without revealing her secret, Gherman's obsession turns to madness. With a final card game imminent, the Countess' ghost returns to reveal the winning hand... and to exact her revenge. The opera will be performed in the original Russian with full orchestra and English supertitles.
