Description

Diva Mawrdew Czowchwz (pronounced Mardu Gorgeous) bursts like the most brilliant of comets onto the international opera scene, only to confront the deadly malice and black magic of her rivals. Outrageous and uproarious, flamboyant and serious as only the most perfect frivolity can be, James McCourt's entrancing send-up of the world of opera has been a cult classic for more than 25 years. This comic tribute to the love of art is a triumph of art and love by a contemporary American master.
