Debussy:  His Letters And His Music

Debussy: His Letters And His Music

Odyssey Theatre Ensemble
2055 S. Sepulveda Blvd Los Angeles

Julia Migenes' illustrious career ranges from her Broadway debut in the original cast of Fiddler on the Roof to her Grammy Award-winning portrayal of Carmen on film, her leading roles with the world's greatest opera companies and her acclaimed turn as Ethel Rosenberg in Angels in America. Now, this entertainment powerhouse returns to L.A.'s Odyssey Theatre with her latest one-woman show, a bio-musical of Claude Debussy (Clair de Lune), to kick off a monthlong music festival in March. Migenes also wrote this world premiere, which captures both the joys and struggles of the French composer through his actual letters, and then segues into musical selections. She'll be accompanied by pianist Manuel Arellano and directed by Oscar-nominee Peter Medak (The Ruling Class, The Krays, TV's The Wire), who also happens to be her ex-husband.
