‘The Shining’: Opera based on Stephen King’s horror masterpiece comes to SF

A few years ago, Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Paul Moravec was thinking about subjects for a new opera. He considered a number of sources — and then friends suggested “The Shining.”“I thought, ‘Oh my God,’ what an idea,’” Moravec said in a recent call from New York. He knew the Stanley Kubrick film, but hadn’t read the Stephen King novel that was Kubrick’s source. Once he did, he and award-winning librettist Mark Campbell went to work; the opera made an acclaimed world premiere at Minnesota Opera in 2016, and has since been produced to rave reviews at Opera Colorado and Lyric Opera of Kansas City.Now “The Shining” is making its West Coast premiere, in a new Opera Parallèle production directed by Brian Staufenbiel, conducted by Nicole Paiement and starring baritone Robert Wesley Mason in the leading role of Jack Torrance. Performances are June 2-4 at San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Center for the Arts.“The Shining” follows Torrance and his family as they spend a winter in ...
