Tony Howell & Co. February 28, 2018 Gianni Schicchi "Clever pop culture references... was a hoot" Tony Howell & Co. February 28, 2018 Gianni Schicchi “Opera Idaho is tapping into some of Boise’s best technical designers and reaching out to new directors. The result is an appealing and cohesive connection between these very different pieces …Gianni Schicchi is a hysterical romp … Originally set in 12th century Florence, it was updated to 1960s Boise by director Cindy Sadler. It offered a mix of dynamic voices and clever pop culture references … it was a hoot.” — Idaho Statesman
