San Francisco Opera is going to be opening a new operatic treatment of Stephen King's Dolores Claiborne in about a month. If anybody who lives out there catches it please report back. Hopefully SFO will do a recording (either audio or video) because this could be something really incredible.

It's a great story with an equally great film adaptation.
Best of luck to them!

This thread title cracks me up a bit.
I can almost picture a nervous stage manager making the announcement after a poor actress's health had been called in to question.
He gathers the cast and crew together backstage, clears his throat ... and then ...
"Dolores Claiborne will sing."
I suppose it reminds me of "Victoria Page will not dance the dance of the Red Shoes tonight ... or any other night ..."

Posted: 8/19/13 at 9:23amI like the film a good deal -- Judy Parfitt was robbed of a Best Supporting Actress Oscar that year. The novel's interesting, as well, very different from the film.
