"Callas"

Last night I got the chance to go and see a piece of the gay theater here in Dublin.

The Lisbon Traviata, by Terrence Mcnally was performed (reading only) at the Outhouse LGBT center last night.
Maria Callas was a Greek-Canadian opera singer, one of the greatest from the 20th century, and my good friend Joby Red (the one on the picture with me) had this amazing idea of directing this piece of art which is surrounded about her life and performances     

The story goes of a tragic love relationship of a gay couple in america and the love/addiction of one of the guys for opera and in particular for Callas. It was a fast pacing and exciting scenes with load of gay delemas that I could relate to it.

The show was one night only and was fantastic, the story was been narrated by the director (Joby Red) and sound operated by another good friend of mine, Mike Kelly (Silvertung Media).
It was a great experience and a fantastic time from the beginning till the end.
