“Soprano Laura Claycomb gives a must-see performance as Giulietta. Vocally and dramatically compelling, Claycomb seizes the opportunities of bel canto style to evoke our deepest sympathies for her character.

Claycomb has thrilling vocal agility and beautiful tone throughout her range. Her ornamentation was wonderful. And her high E’s (above high C’s) during her second act confrontation with her father after taking sleeping potion were penetrating expressions of Giulietta’s despair.”
