“The
director of Così,
Chuck Hudson [approached] the piece rather like the current Metropolitan Opera
production, [playing] up its comedy with very few dark overtones. The audience
loved it, responding with a lot of laughter, applause, and a rousing ovation at
the end…I never saw an audience any more enthusiastic or more excited than
those who attended Così.”
