“Trouble in Tahiti,” a tale of suburban love in distress, depicts the longing lurking beneath the surface of a perfect 1950’s American marriage. Directed by Scott Edmiston, this one-act masterpiece was Leonard Bernstein's first foray into opera musical theater when it premiered in 1952 with Bernstein conducting. The evening concludes with a taste of “Bon Appétit!,” Lee Hoiby's delightful musicalization of a classic Julia Child television broadcast, directed by David Green. In this “episode,” the master chef, played by veteran Broadway star Judy Kaye, demonstrates the makings of a classic French chocolate cake in her beloved and inimitable style. Hoiby's lively score illuminates Child's words and witticisms and takes viewers on a musical journey as this culinary adventure unfolds before their eyes.
