Congratulations to Craig Colclough, the voice of Thomas Scoundrel. He is getting rave reviews for his performance in Mozart’s Don Giovanni at the LA Opera (through October 15th, 2023.) When Craig’s performance comes to an end he will be going into the recording booth to perform the new Thomas Scoundrel novel, Passage to Moorea. We are proud and honored to have a talent of his stature working with us, Bravo, Craig!
Review From Stage & Cinema:
Bass-Baritone Craig Colclough‘s (last seen at LA Opera as Figaro in Marriage of Figaro) portrayal of Don Giovanni’s servant Leporello was, simply put, a master class. What set him apart from others I have seen in the role was his ability to convey Leporello’s internal conflicts and evolving perspective on his master. As the opera progressed, Colclough’s Leporello transitioned from being a simple bystander to grappling with moral dilemmas and questions of loyalty. This evolution was subtly reflected in Colclough’s nuanced acting and vocal delivery, adding an extra layer of complexity to the character. His performance of the famous “Catalogue Aria” was a true highlight, as he navigates the rapid-fire list of Don Giovanni’s conquests with clarity and precision. Colclough’s delivery not only showcased his technical skill but also his ability to infuse the aria with humor and personality.
