The 2013 Santa Fe Opera Season: Soprano Susanna Phillips

Wed. 6/26 10a:  Opening June 29 at the Santa Fe Opera is a remounting of Jonathan Kent's 2008 production of Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro."  Singing the role of the Countess, as she did in the original production, is soprano Susanna Phillips.  Susanna's association with the Santa Fe Opera started in 2004 when she was part of the Opera's Apprentice Program.  Spencer Beckwith talks with Susanna Phillips outside in the Opera's cantina.

Spencer is a graduate of the acting program at the Juilliard School, and, before moving to New Mexico in 2002, was for many years a professional actor based in New York City.
