Philip Glass: Akhnaten
Philip Glass’ opera “Akhnaten”, premiered in Stuttgart in 1984, forms the third part of the portrait opera trilogy about personalities who have influenced the course of human history. The conclusion of the trilogy deals with the ancient Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten, who attempted to establish a kind of monotheistic cult around the god Aton during his reign in the 14th century BC, but failed due to the resistance of the priesthood. The production presented here was undoubtedly one of the very great successes of the 2019/20 season at New York’s Metropolitan Opera, due not only to the outstanding cast of singers (led by countertenor Anthony Roth Costanzo) but also to Phelim McDermott’s imaginative staging, which captivates with sometimes breathtaking imagery.

Peter MacLeod: Sagesse Reportée
In his show Sagesse reportée, Quebec comic Peter MacLeod explores the implications of turning forty. He knows he should be setting an example by becoming socially more mature. He should have a wife, not a girlfriend, a joint account, a minivan, a Costco membership, a season golf pass and a seat on Josélito Michaud’s Orford Express. In other words, he should be spending his weekends picking up reno supplies at Home Hardware, going to his son’s soccer tournaments and trying out the latest Ricardo recipes. But in his quest for forty-something freedom he opts out of the exemplary suburban-dad lifestyle to show us that older doesn’t necessarily mean wiser.
Six Hours: Surviving Typhoon Yolanda
In the middle of a broadcast about Typhoon Yolanda's initial impact, reporter Jiggy Manicad was faced with the reality that he no longer had communication with his station.

Letting the world know what was happening to was a priority, but they were driven by the need to let their families and friends know they were all still alive. Along the way, they encountered residents and victims of the massive typhoon, and with each step it became increasingly clear just how devastating this storm was. This was a storm that was going to change lives.
