- ↑ Wolf Trap Opera is marking the 80th birthday year of Philip Glass by staging two of the American composer’s lesser-known operas this season. In June the company collaborated with Halcyon Stage in a production of The Fall of the House of Usher, directed by Septime Webre. Now, for its final staging of the summer Wolf Trap is presenting a double-bill featuring The Juniper Tree, which Glass co-composed with Robert Moran, seen Friday night at the Barns. The connection between the two Glass works is librettist Arthur Yorinks, who took the scenario of The Juniper Tree quite literally from the rather horrifying fairy tale of the same title by the Brothers Grimm.
