Maria Callas is teaching a master class. She's glamorous, commanding, larger than life—and incredibly funny. An accompanist sits at the piano, at the ready. Callas' first "victim" is Sophie, a ridiculous, overly-perky soprano. Before the girl can sing a note, Callas stops her—she can't stand hearing music massacred! And now what has started out as a class has become another stage for Callas herself. She glories in her own career, dabbles in opera dish and flat-out seduces the audience. MST’s production will star Celeste Roberts as Callas.

Rated PG-13 – Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.
Children under the age of 5 are not allowed in the theater.
