Q&A SUSANNAH BILLER Soprano Susannah Biller sings the dual roles of Fraulein Burstner and Leni in Opera Theatre of Saint Louis’ production of “The Trial” by Philip Glass and Christopher Hampton. You sing two roles, Fraulein Burstner and Leni, the very promiscuous nurse. Talk about the difference between the two characters. The one major difference I can share just from the score is that Fraulein Burstner’s tone and vocabulary indicates a more refined woman. Of course, Leni is the complete opposite. She basically seems to vomit her thoughts and desires to Herr K. I’m excited to bring these women to life. I love my job!!!!
OPERA THEATRE OF SAINT LOUIS The spring season of operas sung in English by the acclaimed regional company takes place at the LorettoHilton Center on the Webster University campus.

You’ve performed at OTSL twice before. Talk a little about the experience. There is nothing better than performing and working with colleagues that are tops in their fields. Audience members have an opportunity to hear operatic works in English in an intimate environment with an orchestra of the highest caliber. Every year I’m blown away by the performances, commitment and production quality. Any restaurants you can recommend? Well, I love to eat and STL has a killer food scene. Lulu’s Local Eatery - vegan, but out-of-control tasty. The Shaved Duck - two words: CORN BREAD!!!! Farmhaus Restaurant - bacon wrapped meatloaf and Ozark mushroom salad. Urban Chestnut Brewery - favorite beer: Zwickel. Cyrano’s - I have a sick obsession with their chicken fingers. No judgment, please. OTSL’s Susannah Biller

St. Louis Your Way
Antiquer Going for the old? Check out (1) Jack Parker Fine Art & Antiques for an outstanding col-
lection of 19th- and early 20th-century American and regional paintings, American Indian artifacts and Mission furniture, located on the edge of The Hill neighborhood above O’Connell’s Pub, where you might as well have lunch. (2) Shelton Davis Antiques in the Central West End, specializes in fine antique Continental, English and American furniture, decorative arts, oil paintings, silver, china, and crystal in flamboyant good taste. If mid-century quickens your pulse, head down to (3) Rocket Century in the South Grand neighborhood for a carefully edited collection of furniture, art, accessories, kitchenware, tableware and more from the century beginning with the 1920s. 48 W H E R E S T. LO U I S I J U N E 2017
Outdoor Enthusiast
Souvenir Seeker
Crave the great outdoors? Have an aquatic adventure at the (1) Forest Park Boathouse, where you can rent a paddleboat and pedal your way from the boathouse to the Grand Basin at the foot of Art Hill. If you crave a touch more excitement, you'll get it at (2) Grafton Zipline, a nine-line, 1.75-mile guided canopy tour through wooded hills and hollows, reaching heights of over 200 feet above the ground, at Aerie’s Resort. One of the great blessings associated with the (3) Katy Trail hiking/biking path, built along an abandoned railroad track, is the proximity of the trail to a number of Missouri wineries, where you can take a break, share a bottle of chilled chardonel, and gaze upon some of the St. Louis area’s loveliest vistas. Rent a bike in St. Charles or Defiance, both right on the trail.
You'd like something a little less obvious than a ball cap or a postcard? At (1) Imo's Pizza Retail Store you can celebrate that quintessentially St. Louis-style, thin-crust pizza with a nice variety of goodies, including logo wear, salad dressing and frozen pies. (2) Union Studio features all St. Louis-made products all the time at a stylish shop near Missouri Botanical Garden (ironically unaffiliated with nearby Union Loafers Cafe), including clothing, art, neckware, body products, ceramics, books, jewelry, leather goods, chocolate, stationery and more. (3) Urban Matter, a nicely curated shop in South St. Louis, features home furnishings and gifts for men and women made by local artisans and other small-batch manufacturers, including leather goods, ceramics, jewelry and much more.
