Diva Migenes Is a Diva on the Verge
by Don Grigware
- Jan 2, 2011
Opera diva Julia Migenes performed Diva on the Verge ten years ago at the Odyssey after a triumphant London engagement; at that time she showed a bold bravura that still is tantalizingly delicious. After beginning the evening with a disclaimer that more or less states 'if you expect serious opera, you have come to the wrong venue', Migenes clearly and frankly details the practically impossible feats that are expected from a diva in an operatic performance and then proceeds to illustrate them to the audience through wickedly exaggerated yet endearingly loving renditions.
