The Fountain Theatre has announced a second and final extension for the Los Angeles premiere of Opus by Michael Hollinger through September 26. Opus has been enjoying sold out houses and solid word-of-mouth since if first opened last June to rave reviews, but must make way for the opening of the U.S. premiere of Athol Fugard's newest play, The Train Driver, on October 16.
Opus is a smart, funny and insightful portrait of the fictional Lazara String Quartet. As the foursome prepares for a high profile performance at the White House, tensions mount and personalities clash. When their brilliant, but unstable, violist disappears, the others must seek someone new to perform with them. Will the talented young woman they select fit into a group of men with a complex history? With only days left to prepare, the musicians must navigate the creative, yet often disharmonious, path of creating a masterpiece. Violist-turned playwright Michael Hollinger skillfully establishes how four very distinct personalities must, in the pursuit of artistic excellence, synthesize with one another to create one seamless sound.
The Fountain Theatre production has received unanimous praise from reviewers including a 'Critic's Choice' in the Los Angeles Times, a 'GO!' in the LA Weekly, and 'Critic's Pick' in Back Stage. Reviewplays.com shouts 'Bravo!', StageSceneLA says 'Wow!', the Santa Monica Mirror raves 'pitch perfect,' BroadwayWorld cries 'Brilliant' and the Beverly Press calls Opus 'perfection.'
