Mono-opera "The Human Voice. Telephone" has received the Great Music Award 2021 in the category "Production of the Year" and is Sonora Vaice's directorial debut. In this Operetta Theatre production, the outstanding opera diva Sonora Vaice manages to combine her roles as soloist and director, creating her own compelling story of a woman in her light-heartedness and poignant seriousness. Gian Carlo Menotti's opera The Telephone was written in the middle of the last century, when technology in the form of the telephone was entering more and more homes and becoming an exciting activity for housewives. The light and comic story's protagonist, Lucia, is so busy talking on the phone that she fails to notice her fiancé, who has come to marry her. Francis Poulenc's opera The Human Voice is more existentially poignant - both humorous and deeply philosophical, it reveals the world of women's feelings, longings and thoughts, and encourages reflection on the values and meaning of life.
