		<description><![CDATA[SWEET Ellen Geer has mastered wide-ranging roles during her decades as artistic director and frequent actor at this charming hillside venue. Yet, in her portrayal of Maria Callas (1923–77) during the retirement years of the egocentric Greek opera diva, the term &#8220;chameleon&#8221; has never seemed a more apt summation of Geer&#8217;s talents.
