ANDY ACOSTA as Timothy Laughlin
from Seattle Opera Podcasts Hosted by Seattle Opera
Andy Acosta returns to Seattle Opera in the role of Timothy Laughlin, protagonist of FELLOW TRAVELERS. A devout Catholic and conservative Republican, Timothy falls in love with the seductive Hawkins Fuller. In Act Two, Hawk begins to find Tim’s idealism and inability to hide himself and his feelings unmanageable. HAWK: Why do you care so much about Hungary? TIM: It’s horrible, what they’re going through. It boggles my mind, the evil that Russians bring into this world every day. Do you know what they do to men like us in Russia? HAWK: Easy now. Are you eating at all? You’ve lost so much weight. TIM: I’m never hungry these days. God, I love our Brick House—the fireplace. It’s perfect. HAWK: Skippy, don’t you want a family someday? TIM: No. This is plenty for me. HAWK: But don’t you want— TIM: A “Lucy” of my own? No thanks. What’s the point? Andy Acosta (Tim), Joseph Lattanzi (Hawk), and the orchestra of Seattle Opera are conducted by Steven Osgood. Photo by Photo by David Jaewon Oh.
