Emily’s friend Trevor, played by the remarkable tenor Frank Convit, nearly stole the show. His character’s difficulties, heartrendingly drawn in an incredibly patient and well-paced aria, constantly in dialogue with Todd Waldecker’s gentle clarinet, become the soil from which Emily’s empathy is grown. The number’s climax (“is there something wrong with me?!”) was magnificent and chilling. When we entered Analogue, we were given instagramesque hearts to raise when we heard a beautiful moment that we liked, and this was an amazing moment, but it was so profound that I didn’t want to corrupt it with a banal social media gesture!
