The oratorio Elijah (Felix Mendelssohn’s Elijah Op. 70) gives voice to a mighty prophet who is plucked from obscurity and lends a quiet but strong voice amid dark and turbulent times. The story of Elijah reflects a timeless response to upheaval and injustice and the stand against corruption, resonating with the world today.

Elijah is a deeply human figure – one who wrestles with exhaustion, burnout and self-doubt. First performed in 1846, Elijah has become one of the most celebrated oratorios in the choral repertoire. Rich in emotional depth and musical brilliance, the themes of courage, doubt and moral conviction still speak to audiences around the world.

The World Premiere of Golda’s Balcony, featuring the Elliot Norton Award-winning Annette Miller, was produced at Shakespeare & Company in May 2002 and went on to become the longest-running one-woman play in Broadway history.  The inspiring story of Golda Meir – Russian immigrant, American school teacher, and fourth Prime Minister of Israel – returns to the Berkshires this year in a searingly topical production, staged at the Elayne P. Bernstein Theatre for a limited run of eight performances.
