Domaine Forget | Marc Hervieux and Sophie Faucher: Two Voices to Love Callas

Interview by Frédéric Cardin
Genres and styles : Classical / Modern Classical

Additional Information

It’s been almost a year since Maria Callas : une voix pour être aimée was created by Marc Hervieux, Sophie Faucher and pianist Dominic Boulianne. After an initial tour, followed by a break of several months, the production is back on the road in Quebec (check the calendar Maria Callas | Productions Martin Leclerc). She will make a stop at the Domaine Forget festival on August 17. The play, written by Sophie Faucher and Anne Bryan, is also directed by Marc Hervieux. On the eve of a return to the stage, and into the intimacy of the famous diva’s last days, if not hours, of her life, I spoke to Marc and Sophie to talk about the experience (Marc Hervieux’s first lifetime staging, and Sophie’s latest plunge into the life of Callas, after Les leçons de Maria Callas). Enjoy listening to it.
