Xanthe in Mark Adamo’s retelling of the greek classic Lysistrata or The Nude Goddess with Odyssey Opera + Boston Modern Opera Project with Gil Rose.
Performance Artist (Cover) in the world premiere of Vivaldi + Sarah Ruhl’s new opera The Seasons.
A group of contemporary artists comes to a retreat in nature to make their art. They feel the emotional weather inside of them more than they feel the weather outside of them. But extreme weather impacts them without warning and changes their lives forever. The Seasons is a meditation on the relationship between our contemporary moment and Vivaldi’s iconic music, which appreciated the harmonious seasons. Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, paired with additional arias and ensembles by the composer, becomes an occasion for seeing our own disordered seasons more clearly.
