Terrence McNally’s Tony Award-winning play is based on the legendary series of master classes given by opera diva Maria Callas at Juilliard. In the play, Callas berates her students as much as she encourages them and confronts the disappointments in her own life and her relationship with the shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis.

Reviews
Master Class | Kristin Skye Hoffman | nytheatre.com
“The supporting actors in Master Class are also quite enjoyable…and Clinton Brandhagen plays the Stagehand with appropriate comic timing reminding us where the priorities lie for those who work behind the scenes. Truly the whole ensemble makes up a strong evening of theatre.”
