Synopsis
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.
