Crucible Quiz #2

You've had a few days to recover from the last Quiz, and Vögelchen thinks you are ready for more difficult questions, or at least questions that will make you think a bit outside the box. This is a multi-part question. 10 points for each part.

Crucible Question 2:
            (A) A handful of the performers who created roles for The Crucible also created roles in Robert Kurka's opera, The Good Soldier Schweik, which premiered at NYCO in 1958. Name a few of these performers.

            (B)  What locally grown talent made a splash, more recently, as the title role in The Good Soldier Schweik? Where and when?

Make a stab at either Parts A or B, or both. You can enter your answers in the Comments section or can email Vögelchen at jonathanburdette67@gmail.com.

Good luck!

  1. According to the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2006/09/11/arts/music/11kelley.html?fta=y), the American tenor Norman Kelley premiered the title role of Schweik and was also in the premier of The Crucible.
