THE LAST HOTEL
THE LAST HOTEL, by Irish composer Donnacha Dennehy and writer/director Enda Walsh, will have its world premiere at Edinburgh International Festival’s Royal Lyceum Theatre, August 7-12.
The new chamber opera is set in a hotel room where a man silently mops the floor–with bloody water. The room he’s supposed to be preparing isn’t ready yet. A woman is meeting a man and his wife in the hotel’s parking lot. All three are nervous. Tonight there’ll be a death.
The 12-strong
Crash Ensemble is conducted by Andre de Ridder with a cast that includes
baritone Robin Adams, sopranos Claudia Boyle and Katherine Manley and
renowned Irish actor Mikel Murfi.
