Retooled Porgy And Bess Swells, Soars And Rips The Heartstrings
You know The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess at the Kravis Center is opera because you can't understand a third of the lyrics even in English; you know it's glorious opera because the swelling music and soaring voices make specific words unnecessary. This heart-stopping production reaffirms the genius of the Gershwin brothers and the 21st Century talents who reshaped it.
