Mulligan, Barton, Zambello, Paiement Make the Case for “The Crucible”

It is the opera’s next scene that introduces the opera’s principal protagonists, the Proctors, played by the two of opera’s most important young stars, New York baritone Brian Mulligan and mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton. It is the Proctors’ relationship that provides the dramatic arc of the opera. The vocally strong, soulful performances of the two artists set a new standard for 21st century performances of this important work.
