Strongly cast Mefistofele opens San Francisco Opera's season

Jeffery S. McMillan, 11th September

The 91st season of the San Francisco Opera opened with a revival of Arrigo Boito’s Mefistofele in Robert Carsen’s well-traveled production. The staging extends Shakespeare’s metaphor: if the whole world’s a stage, then heaven, quite naturally, must be an opera house.
