A revival of Terrence McNally’s Master Class opened on Broadway at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre July 7, 2011. The production, directed by Stephen Wadsworth, played 26 previews and 67 performances before closing September 4, 2011, earning a Tony Award nomination for Best Revival of a Play.

Based on the series of master classes given by Maria Callas at Juilliard, Master Class follows the opera diva’s class in which she berates her students as much as she encourages them while confronting the disappointments in her own life and her relationship with the shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis.
