In Performance: Judy Kuhn of ‘Passion’

Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s musical “Passion,” set in 19th-century Italy, tells an unlikely love story: Giorgio, a young army captain with a beautiful mistress, is changed by the obsessive love that Fosca, an invalid he meets while serving at a mountain outpost, has for him. In this number from the Classic Stage Company revival, Fosca, played by Judy Kuhn, sings “Loving You,” in which she tells Giorgio that her love for him “is not a choice, and not much reason to rejoice.” Ms. Kuhn is accompanied on cello by Mairi Dorman-Phaneuf; the arrangement is by Rob Berman, the show’s musical director. “Passion” continues through April 19.

Recent videos include Jenn Harris and Carson Elrod in a scene from “The Universal Language,” one of the works in David Ives’s “All in the Timing,” a collection of short plays, and Maggie Siff and Jonathan Cake in a scene from the Theater for a New Audience production of “Much Ado About Nothing”.
