Italian American composer Gian Carlo Menotti's humorous radio opera, "The Old Maid and the Thief," stands out as one of the pioneering works crafted specifically for radio performance.
This one-act comedic opera, revolves around Miss Todd, an old maid whose romantic prospects have been nonexistent for over four decades and her young housemaid, Laetitia, a sharp-tongued eavesdropper, anxious about the possibility of ending up an "old maid" like her employer. One afternoon, while the town's gossip, Miss Pinkerton, is visiting, a drifter named Bob arrives at Miss Todd's doorstep. Captivated by his charm, Laetitia persuades Miss Todd to allow him to stay. However, Bob's arrival coincides with a town-wide manhunt for a "thief," prompting the police to search every home for the suspect. This sets the stage for a series of comical and bewildering events at Mrs. Todd's residence, leading to an unexpected conclusion.
This production has been made possible through the generous support and contributions from the Pikes Peak Opera League, along with our valued donors, Judy Biondini and Peggy Shivers.

TESTIMONIAL
A condensed version of Bizet's opera, Carmen, was done with fewer singers and no scenery, yet the story was conveyed. A stormy romance, gypsy Carmen seduces Don Jose to follow her away from the army but it ends in tragedy when she leaves him for a toreador.
