Amanda Muggleton

AMANDA MUGGLETON as
MARIA CALLAS in
MASTERCLASS
SUBIACO THEATRE CENTRE
From 16 November, 2017

Amanda Muggleton reprises her Helpmann and Green Room Award-winning role as Maria Callas in a brand-new production of Terrence McNally’s theatrical masterpiece “Masterclass” directed by Adam Spreadbury-Maher.

Maria Callas. The original diva. The greatest dramatic soprano of her generation. After a sensational career that saw her become the undisputed star of the world’s greatest Opera Houses including La Scala and The Metropolitan Opera in New York, she accepts an invitation to conduct a series of master classes to a select group of young vocal students at the Juilliard School in New York.

In this extraordinary theatrical tribute, Callas takes centre-stage one more time as she passes on to her students – and to us – the experiences and lessons of a lifetime. We witness her passion and commitment and realise the uniqueness of her great talent as she cajoles and lectures her students, delivering wisdom and insults in true diva style.

Amanda Muggleton is one of Australia’s greatest and most beloved actresses. In a career that spans four decades, she has more than fifty theatre, film and television credits to her name including the long-running role of Chrissie Latham in television’s Prisoner as well as starring roles in stage productions of Hello Dolly!, Entertaining Mr Sloane, HMS Pinafore, Calendar Girls, Blood Brothers, Steaming, The Seagull and, of course, her unforgettable Shirley Valentine.
