THEATRE, OPERA AND TV DIRECTOR

I was born on October 19, 1968, in Zagreb, where I completed my primary and secondary education. I also attended the School of Classical Ballet and Rhythmics in Zagreb. I continued my education as a classical ballet dancer at the prestigious Moscow Academic Choreographic College (MAXY / Bolshoi theatre ). I completed a two-year postgraduate training in Moscow, but after a serious foot injury, I interrupted my career as a ballerina and returned to Croatia.

Later, I enrolled in Theatre Directing at the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Zagreb and earned a degree as a theatre director. I have been professionally involved in directing since my second year of study.

I have also been a long-time collaborator with the Croatian Radio Television (HRT) as a director of the dubbing of animated and live-action series, as well as a director of special projects. Since 1997, when I started working at HRT, I have directed more than 350 various animated and live-action series. I am also employed at HRT as a permanent associate stage director of special projects. As a stage director, I have directed the presentation of the Croatian Theatre Award four times. I have also directed the opening ceremony of the Pula Film Festival's 50th anniversary and the Croatian selection for the Eurovision Song Contest, DORA, three times.

From November 6, 2004, to August 17, 2006, I served as the director of the Istrian National Theatre (INK) in Pula. During my tenure, the theatre produced numerous plays with the biggest names in Croatian and regional theatre, and received awards at the Italian festival in Cividale and at the festival in Tivat, Montenegro.

From April 14, 2013, to February 11, 2014, I served as the director of the Opera at the Ivan pl. Zajc Croatian National Theatre in Rijeka. During my tenure as the Opera Director, many domestic and foreign distinguished opera singers and directors were engaged.

Many of the plays that I directed have been featured at international festivals and in Croatia. Some notable titles that I directed as a theatre director are:

REGISSEUR

Michael Capasso is the General Director of the New York City Opera. He has produced, directed, and toured opera and musical theater productions in the U.S. and abroad for over 40 years. In June of 2014, along with philanthropist Roy Niederhoffer, he led the successful effort to bring the New York City Opera out of bankruptcy, laying the artistic, administrative, and fiscal groundwork for the company’s future. The revitalized New York City Opera returned to the stage in January 2016 with a celebratory production of Tosca. The company is once again on solid financial footing and producing full seasons of opera, concerts, and educational programming, with a special concentration on City Opera’s long legacy of producing new and innovative opera, refocused through a modern lens. Current company programming efforts, which have included seven New York, U.S., and world premieres since 2017, seek to reflect the diverse tapestry of New York City through ongoing initiatives: Ópera en Español, LGBTQ+ Pride Series, an ongoing partnership with the National Yiddish Theatre Folksbiene, and a celebration of Black excellence.

Mr. Capasso began his career producing and directing while still in his late teens and early twenties. In 1981, he, along with Diane Martindale, founded New York’s Dicapo Opera Theatre. In 1995, Capasso conceived and designed a permanent home and performance space for the company, repurposing the lower level of the St. Jean Baptiste Catholic Church on Manhattan’s East Side, and transforming the large, unused space into a 204-seat “jewel-box” theater. Drawing on his background in construction, he was involved in every facet of the project, even personally manning heavy equipment to dig the orchestra pit. Over the 30 years of his leadership, Dicapo Opera Theater presented a diverse programming to the New York public, and, in cooperation with the Armel Festival, premiered three productions of contemporary American operas in Europe. In celebration of the 75th anniversary of George Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess, Capasso mounted a production which began touring in the United States in February 2010. An acclaimed stage director, Mr. Capasso has directed over 100 productions of opera and musical theatre in the U.S. and internationally, including multiple regional, U.S., and world premieres with both Dicapo Opera and New York City Opera, including as recently as 2022 when he directed and produced the world premiere of Ricky Ian Gordon and Michael Korie’s The Garden of the Finzi-Continis. One of the foremost living Puccini experts, Mr. Capasso has directed every operatic note the maestro wrote, including all three versions of Madama Butterfly and the American staged premiere of Edgar.

As an author, his writing credits include: a staged adaptation of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol; Opera Senza Rancor, a satire on the world of opera; Puccini’s Passion, a biographical play with music on the life and career of Puccini; a new book and libretto for La Périchole; English librettos for Die Fledermaus and The Daughter of the Regiment; and a concert/lecture series for the New York Historical Society. Capasso’s film on the life and career of Enrico Caruso, which he wrote and produced, aired on the A&E Network’s Biography series in 1998. Other film credits include his direction of scenes from Nabucco for the feature film The Secret Lives of Dentists.

In 2016 Capasso was awarded an honorary Doctorate from the College of Mount Saint Vincent and the “Legends of the Arts” award from the Harvard Club. He has received New York City’s Ellis Island Medal of Honor, The Licia Albanese-Puccini Foundation’s Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Leonardo Da Vinci Award for Cultural Achievement from the Italian Heritage and Culture Committee of New York. In 2004, he was named “Man of the Year” by the Italian Welfare League and in 2009 received a Special Lifetime Achievement Award in the Arts from the Order Sons of Italy in America.

Mr. Capasso holds dual U.S. and Italian citizenship and speaks fluent Italian. His videos on Italian cooking are available on YouTube.

Kobie van Rensburg – started his vocal studies with Prof. Werner Nel while studying for graduate and post-graduate degrees in Law and International Politics, obtaining both cum laude, at the Northwest University of South Africa. The lyric tenor made his professional debut at the early age of twenty, singing Belmonte in Mozart’s Entführung aus dem Serail for the Roodepoort City Opera in 1991, quickly followed by engagements at the opera houses of Capetown, Durban and Pretoria.
After winning the concert section of the 1994 UNISA International Singing competition, he joined the studio of the Bavarian State Opera and shortly afterwards Munich’s Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz. Regular guest engagements at such renowned opera houses as the Metropolitan Opera in New York, the Berlin-, Munich-, and Stuttgart State Theatres, San Francisco, Seattle, the Théâtre du Châtelet and the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris, the Vienna Volksoper, Opéra National du Rhin, Opéra National de Montpellier, the Teatro Sao Carlos in Lissabon and Teatro Real in Madrid soon followed. His operatic repertoire of more than 50 leading roles, ranged from the early operas by Monteverdi to Wagner and several world premieres of modern pieces, but his main focus was on repertoire of the 17th and 18th century and historically informed performance practice. He regularly collaborated with conductors such as René Jacobs, Sir John Eliot Gardiner, Nikolaus Harnoncourt, Christopher Hogwood, Christophe Rousset, Jean Claude Malgoire, Ivor Bolton, Bruno Weil, Lorin Maazel, Sir Geoffrey Tate und James Levine. He recorded several prizewinning CD’s (Grammy Award for Best Opera Recording and Gramophone Record of The Year Award) and Live DVD Recordings of Monteverdi, Händel, Mozart, and Rossini Operas.
In 2007 he made his debut as stage director with an acclaimed production of Monteverdi’s L’Orfeo for the Halle Opera house in collaboration with the Halle Händel Festival. Productions of various operas in Germany, Austria, South Africa and Switzerland followed, allowing him to develop a unique visual style, incorporating dramaturgical videography and multimedia elements such as interactive, animated translations and 3D graphics as part of the set. His most recent productions include a celebrated Monteverdi Trilogy for the Landestheater Niederbayern in Passau, Händel’s La Resurrezione for the Halle Händel Festival and RadialsystemV in Berlin, Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro, Don Giovanni and Barbiere di Siviglia for Theater Krefeld-Mönchengladbach, Rossini’s Cenerentola in Chemnitz and Mozart’s Zauberflöte and Händel’s Ariodante in Münster.
He cultivates a special interest in the creation of pastiche operas: His baroque farce, Ein Theater nach der Mode for the Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz, created with Peer Boysen, was recorded for broadcast by the Bayerische Runkfunk and was revived for four seasons, while his 17th century drama, Il Pianto d’Orfeo, created for RadialSystemV in Berlin, was also revived at the Festspielhaus St. Pölten in Austria.
He regularly teaches masterclasses in singing and historically informed performance practice in Germany, Austria and South Africa. Between 2003 and 2010 he was a Guest Professor of Music at the Northwest University in Potchefstroom, where he also chaired the 2nd International Singing Symposium and directed a student production of his 17th century pastiche opera, Tirsi, Clori et Fileno. In 2010 he founded the Early Music Forum Africa and in cooperation with the NWU produced and directed the first South African production of a Handel opera (Acis and Galatea) with period instruments. He is deeply committed to the development of opera in South Africa, especially in underprivileged communities and serves as Director of the Umculo Opera Incubator since 2015.
