Benedict (Andrew Owens) considers marriage a "dreadful fate". His buddies Don Pedro (Daniel Sumegi) and Claudio (Craig Verm) playfully argue that it's "a blissful state". As in most matters, the truth lays somewhere in the middle. By the end of the opera, both sides will have adjusted their position.
Berlioz's "Beatrice and Benedict" plays thru March 10, 2018 at McCaw Hall. Details at seattleopera.org/beatrice.
