Master Class (1997)

Dixie Carter fulfilled her childhood dream of being an opera singer by portraying her idol, Maria Callas, arguably the best opera singer in history.

Terrence McNally's ode to opera, theater and, of course, Maria Callas, is now in the capable hands of Dixie Carter..... Carter has brought great intelligence and strength to the role. She has captured McNally's Callas sharply. ~The New York Daily News

I felt like we shouldn't be watching this woman -- Dixie's performance of Maria Callas was so raw and so private; I felt like we were seeing something we shouldn't be privvy to, but thank God we were. ~Alfred Molina, Actor
