The Grapes of Wrath: Ricky Ian Gordon’s Opera Deserves a Real Run

NEW YORK STAGE review

Eldest son Noah – described as “a calm and puzzled-looking man who seldom spoke” – takes it upon himself to relieve the strain on the family larder. Christian Pursell sings this devastating soliloquy exquisitely. If you’re left dry-eyed, you are perhaps utterly devoid of empathy.
