The Princeton Festival Guild will present the Artists Round Table on Wednesday, May 31 at 6:30 p.m. at Princeton Theological Seminary’s Scheide Hall. Opera artists, production staff, and others from The Princeton Festival’s production of Beethoven’s Fidelio will share their personal experiences with the audience during an interactive forum. Hear the pleasures and perils faced both on stage and off as the artists bring the opera to life for its opening performance. The Artists Round Table offers a rare opportunity to meet the artists up close and hear in their own voice how they develop their roles, interpretations, and insights. 

Marian Burleigh-Motley, renowned interviewer and lecturer at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, will moderate. Richard Tang Yuk, artistic director of The Princeton Festival and Stephen LaCosse, stage director of The Princeton Festival’s production of Fidelio will participate along with principal singers from the production.

This event is free and open to the public. Visitor parking is available on the Seminary campus. Artists reception follows. The Princeton Festival presents Fidelio, June 18 and 25 at McCarter Theatre. For information, visit www.princetonfestival.org or call (609) 258-2787.
