Bass-Baritone John Shirley-Quirk, Legendary Britten Interpreter, Dead at 82
The English bass-baritone John Shirley-Quirk, one of the greatest of his generation, has died aged 82. Although he arguably could have turned his burnished voice, full of vibrant energy (often tastefully restrained by its owner), to a wider repertoire, there is no doubt that he knows what he did supremely well and concentrated on doing it.

Quinton, co-star of the original Ridiculous Theatrical Company production of Charles Ludlam's 'The Mystery of Irma Vep,' returns to direct a 30th anniversary production for the Red Bull Theater.
