This was the final project where I sent photos of my work to my husband. When I sent this specific image to his phone on February 18, 2025, he did not respond. Despite the lack of response, I remember he always expressed that he was proud of my work.

Thank you for an incredible opening night!
After many weeks of preparation and rehearsals, it is fantastic to share this brand new Così fan tutte with Detroit! A huge shoutout to our artistic team, led by Yuval Sharon, Gary L. Wasserman Artistic Director of Detroit Opera, and conductor Corinna Niemeyer, who made her house AND U.S. debut last night. And of course thank you to the cast, orchestra, crew, and everyone else that makes our productions possible.
Last but not least, thank YOU for joining us to experience how Detroit—and Detroit Opera—does things a little differently.
See you at the next show!
