La Seridan: Adorable Diva
La Sheridan, as she became known to enthusiastic opera fans throughout Europe, was born Margaret Burke Sheridan in the town of Castlebar in Ireland. From 1918 until her sudden retirement from the stage of grand opera in 1930, she gave legendary performances in the great opera houses of La Scala, San Carlo, Rome Opera House, Covent Garden, Monte Carlo...
Orphaned as a young child, her rise to fame is a story of success and of misfortune, of romance and tempestuousness, of a fiery and formidable exterior, concealing a vulnerable and lonely person.
Discovered by Marconi, tutored by Puccini, dubbed the 'Empress of Ireland' by Toscanini, sharing the stage with such stars as Gigli, Pertile, Stabile, Badini, Lauri Volpi, Toti del Monte, Eva Turner and revered by critics and opera lovers around the world, Margaret Burke Sheridan was a complex woman and a prima donna in the true sense.
